Plakias beach and village in southern Crete
After showing us an amazing time in its eastern Lasithi region in the spring of 2023, Crete beckoned us back for more in 2024. This time, we spent over five weeks visiting central and western areas of the island, basing ourselves in places we had not seen before. All were delightful for first-time visits.
The southern Crete village of Plakias impressed us the most. It quickly captured our hearts with its marvellous mountain scenery, beautiful beaches and coastlines, traditional mountain villages, and dozens of interesting walking and hiking routes. While Plakias was our favourite destination of the trip, we also enjoyed the five other places we stayed at on the island. And we were happy with the time we spent at two seaside locations in eastern Attica after returning to the Greece mainland before our flight home.
