Crete images... What a wonderful feeling of visiting Kriti!

From her mountains to her beaches and olive groves, her charming cosmopolitan towns and her unique animals and plants, food and wine, her lifestyle and customs.

Here you will see photos of the towns of Chania, Rethymnon, Iraklion and Agios Nikolaos.

Wildly inspiring galleries from all over Greece come with the warning: you will be packing your bags for the Greek Isles before you know it!

Some images of Greece haunt our dreams and melt into our psyches. The myriad forms and colours across the whole country astoud our senses. See our page of eternal Greek landscapes and icons here...

The Greek cats take our imagination - their feline form becoming synonymous with the white-washed walls or the taverna tables...the high walls of Santorini or the seaside bars of Mykonos... See our page dedicated to the Cats of Greece...

The Beautiful Doors of Greece show the character of the country, enticing us down unknown laneways as we explore villages and towns all over Crete and Greece... See our page dedicated to the Doorways of Greece...

These images remind of us the fresh breezes of the sea, endless sun, and the promise of a tasty feast with fun company, maybe some Greek seafood; fresh fish and grilled octopus. See our page dedicated to the Octopus Drying by the Seaside, Greece...





Beautiful Images of Greek Boats...

Below are some of our favourite photos of Iraklion Town. Iraklion is the capital of the island, a very busy commercial centre, with an international airport, it is located on the north coast in the centre of the island. It is a town of contrasts and new discoveries.



Venetian Harbour, Heraklion by Phileole

Below are our favourite images from Chania town. Chania was the capital of Kriti until 1913, and has always been an important trade centre. Its stunning Venetian harbour and old quarter enchant visitors and locals alike.

Below are some of our favourite images from Rethymnon town. With her charismatic old town of narrow streets, Venetian architecture and the tiny old harbour lined with restaurants, to the fortezza on top of the hill, Rethymnon has many different faces to explore.

Below are some of our favourite images of Agios Nikolaos. A charismatic town in the east of Crete, with a lake and channel near the large harbour and surrounded by beaches, this town is a delight to explore.
