| Crete: The island |
|
Crete has an elongated shape, 260 km long from east to west and
between 15 and 60 km wide. The coastline is over 1000 km long
and consists of both sandy and pebbly beaches and rocky shores.
The high mountains are a characteristic of the Cretan landscape.
They
form three mountain complexes, each with its own 'personality'.
Between the ranges lie semi-mountainous zones which cover the
greater part of the island. There are also a few low-lying plains
as well as a number of high plateaux.
Our hotel is situated right on the coast,
about one km outside of the village of Hora Sfakion,
a village which is the 'capital' of the region
of Sfakia. This region of high mountains, plateaux
and wild coastline is famous for its respect of old
traditions and intact nature.

You cannot expect to visit a place as large as Crete, with such varied nature and rich past, in a few weeks holidays. Likewise it would be a huge undertaking to present all the available information about Crete on these pages. Instead we have provided links to relevant pages and sites, listed by categories.
The links will open in a new browser window.
