Europe

Situated off the coast of Greece and only a few hours by plane from the UK, the island of Crete is a heavenly and mythical destination, ideal for those looking for a different setting; one where cultures meet and the magnificent alternates with the wild. To experience a holiday in Crete is to plunge into thousands of years of history, where the ancient gods rub shoulders with legendary civilisation, as witnessed by the ruins of Knossos not far from the splendid city of Heraklion, the ramparts of Rethymon and the incredible fortress of Frangokastello. However, Crete is more than vestiges of history; it is also a paradise where nature-lovers will be transported to Heaven, with the gorges of Samaria, the isle of Elafonissi and the plateau of Lassithi. To holiday in Crete is to also enjoy a hospitable and warm people, the discovery of little neighbouring villages where life is lived in time with the seasons and in line with the sun. You will adore strolling through Agios Nikolaos, Loutro and Matala, or discovering the less touristic regions such as the Messara plain.

Crete

Of all the countries in the Mediterranean basin , Greece is without doubt the one which has the most tourists ... and for good reason! There aren't many places in the world where the culture, the history, the welcome and the beauty, come together in such perfect harmony. Taking a trip to Greece is first about taking a trip in time and walking in the steps of one of the most brilliant civilisations of antiquity : Athens, Olympia, Delphi and Mycenae are place where the magnificent ruins are witness to a heritage that is still living today. Travelling in Greece, is also a chance to enjoy a very special climate, warm and dry, which is ideal for long swims in the paradisiacal water of the Aegean sea or precious time to relax on hidden beaches in small coves in the Cyclades.A trip to Greece , is also about the pleasure of exploring an ancient cuisine where vine leaves, olive oil and Raki will make you sigh with pleasure. Why wait any longer: Ελλάδα σας περιμένει!

If you want peace and quiet during your <a href="/crete/">holiday in Crete</a>, Loutro is the ideal spot. Here,nothing will disturb you.
 The village of Loutro is the ideal place to unwind and have a wonderful holiday reading, walking and swimming,... a great place to do nothing! 
Those who love beautiful beaches will adore Loutro: the village has a pleasant pebble beach with limpid sea, where I love to relax; for the more energetic, there are canoes and even pedalos. A few minutes from Loutro, you will find the fabulous Phoenix bay with its little beach and views of the coastline and the hinterland. 
Walkers will enjoy the long hikes around the coast on steep paths. You must visit the Aradena gorge on the outskirts of Loutro : a naturally wild and splendid place, near Marmara beach.
