1Crete

As Greece’s largest island, Crete is an incredible sailing destination offering diverse landscapes, historic sites, and stunning coastal scenery. The island’s north coast features bustling towns like Chania and Rethymno, while the southern coast is more rugged and remote, with hidden gems like Loutro and the palm-fringed beach of Preveli.

Crete’s surrounding islets, such as Gramvousa and Chrissi Island, boast some of the most spectacular beaches in Greece. The island’s strategic location also makes it a great starting point for longer sailing trips towards the Cyclades or Dodecanese.
