Crete: The Biggest Greek Island


Heraklion (aka Iraklion or Candia) being the capital city, Crete is the largest Greek Island in the Aegean sea. Crete is mainly famous for its music and the dance Pentozali. Crete is accessible by both air and sea. The main ports are Heraklion, Chania, Agios Nikolaos and Rethimno. Many cruiselines include Crete, Heraklion port in their itinerary. The downtown area is walking distance from the dock, and you can see many small ships and fisherman on the way. The downtown area is quite and peaceful. While you can walk around window-shopping, you also have the chance to buy souvenirs from the small shops. If you want to sit down and relax with Cretan wine, there are many small cafes around.
