Indulgent Escapes to Crete
While the coastline glints with crumbled seashells, harbour towns, sleepy villages and just-preserved relics from bygone eras rub shoulders around captivating Crete. The island is renowned for its remarkable roll call of ancient sites and feast-worthy menus. But it doesn’t scrimp on supremely wondrous hotels to spend every waking moment in…
Indulgence, any time of day
Morning
The rise-and-shine you get on this Greek island is unrivalled, and that’s thanks to the iconic Cretan breakfast. Savoury staples revolve around the grains, including barley rusks topped with glossy tomatoes and tangy local cheeses. As for the sweets, prepare for abundant figs, honey and pastries.
Afternoon
For the plumpest, juiciest olives, peer no further than the stalls of Chania Central Market. It’s a known seller of souvenirs, fruit and other sample-me produce, and you’ll delight in the aromas as you wander around. Later, top off the day with a boat trip that arrives back to shore by sunset.
Evening
Depending on your venue of choice for an evening meal, you may well be treated to a serendipitous side of fluidly evolving live music from local instrumentalists. But if the buzz of an atmospheric watering hole takes your fancy, embark on after-dark tipples in a glamorous cocktail or jazz bar.
