A bit about Crete

Visit the birthplace of the king of the gods and luxuriate on pink sand beaches with an ethereal effect. Also known as the location for the filming of The Inbetweeners Movie, Crete offers so much more than a lad’s boozy weekend away. Steeped with ancient mythological importance and its own unique culture, the island offers some of the most astounding views and breath-taking experiences in Greece. The terrain in Crete ranges from the fine sandy beaches at Elafonisi to the White Mountains. The tallest of which, Ida, is home to the Ideon Cave which is, according to Greek mythology, the birthplace of Zeus, the king of the gods of Mount Olympus.
