The summer in Crete is over, but the summer continues. Autumn in Crete, one of the southernmost regions in Greece, is nothing else but the continuation of the summer. Especially September and the beginning of October will give you the feeling that August never ended, but was simply extended.
The beaches are bustling with life, with people swimming and sunbathing, the restaurants are crowded, the party is still going on at bars and clubs. You may see that it is easier to get a table, that service is quicker, that at the archeological sites you don’t find tourists everywhere taking pictures, but these can only be considered an advantage. After all, many believe that the beginning of autumn is the perfect time of year to go on vacation, and Crete, with its wonderful climate, is living proof of that.
However, Crete in autumn offers many other opportunities as well, not just at its beaches and sights, but also inland, at the forests and mountains. And that’s because the weather might be nice, but there’s definitely no heat wave, which means that it is easier to explore its exquisite nature, to hike, for example, at Psiloritis or the Samaria Gorge.
Autumn in Crete does not fall short in comparison to summer. So, don’t hesitate to visit the island even this time of year!
