Below is our "must see" list of villages and seaside resorts that we would recommend any first, second or third visitor to visit.

Crete consists of four regions; Chania in the west, Rethymno, Iraklio in the center and also the capital of the island, and to the east the Lassithi Plateau. In general, the northern shores of Crete are developed for tourism, and some of them full-blown package tourism traps. If you are looking to discover the culture of Greece, some of these places aren't for you. But fear not, Greece is big and varied and there are many beautiful spots to discover.

You can also choose to visit and explore one of the up and coming resort towns in the island of Crete - Malia!
The resort town has been a favorite destination of tourists for their Malia holidays, lately getting attention due to its generally younger crowd who are can usually be found frolicking in the resort town's 5 kilometer stretch of powdery, white sand beaches during the daytime and with the setting of the sun, the crowd and the excitement spills out onto Malia's collection of upscale and elegant nightclubs for a night of partying by the beach. Crete has indeed a lot to offer its visitors, so bring your camera over when you visit our island!"
