Perhaps it's the food, maybe it's the ambiance, or maybe it's just that the island of Crete truly does possess some magical quality. Whatever the cause may be, all who visit the island of Crete fall in love with this esoteric destination and never want to leave.
Crete, the largest and southernmost of the Greek islands, exudes a mysteriously soothing atmosphere, exclusive to this particular destination among the many Greek Islands. Despite the locals deeply-earthed loyalty to Greece, those who inhabit Crete, as well as all who visit, know that there is something that makes this island different, something that causes a sense of pride and warmth to exude from its citizens. Visitors to Crete can sense this immediately, as, upon arrival, they feel genuinely welcome.

Crete is composed of four main counties: Chania, Rethymno, Heraklion and Lasithi, and within each of these, the historically fascinating remains of previous inhabitants can be found, which date back thousands of years.
Crete's menu is primarily based on olive oil, as one could quickly deduce by the plethora of olive groves found on the island. Cheeses and wines hailing from Crete are also worth a try. It is also highly likely you will find yourself sampling Raki, a famous drink that can be customarily drunk at frequent intervals during the day.
