Known as one of the most famous Greek Islands, Mykonos is a very popular holiday destination in the summer months. There are many ferry routes departing from Mykonos Port, mostly fairly short crossings to other coastal resorts belonging to Greece. Famous for its luxurious beaches, scorching temperatures and, of course, the notorious party scene, Mykonos is usually inundated with young people across Europe looking for temporary tans and cheap alcohol. The beaches are rightfully popular; the golden sands next to crystal waters create an idyllic setting for a holiday in the sun, especially during the summer months. If the beaches seem popular, then the bars and clubs come nightfall will be twice as busy – for relentless partying then the strip of clubs is the place to go. Contrary to popular belief, there is more to Mykonos than the thriving nightlife and young holidaymakers: the island is filled with hidden caves and traverses that are a refreshing change from the lively atmosphere. For a middle ground between partying and a mild stroll, there are canoeing and kayaking excursions available, supervised by fully qualified instructors. Taxis are probably the best way to get around Mykonos, though the buses are a reliable and cheap alternative option. Much of the centre of the island can be covered by foot, which is a common choice considering the typically pleasant weather.
Located between the popular regions of Heraklion and Chania is the beautiful historic town of Rethymno, the third largest town on the island of Crete in Greece. Rethymno is a place of outstanding natural wealth and a variation of landscapes, with flourishing valleys, harsh mountains and rocky shores following long sandy beaches. The east side of the region is mostly mountainous while the northern and southern coasts are dotted with fabulous beaches which are pretty popular in summer. The city of Rethymno is one of the best preserved medieval towns in Greece, with Venetian fortification works, orthodox and catholic churches, mosques, grand Venetian mansions, arches and cobbled streets all together, creating this wondrous traditional atmosphere. The Venetian port is probably one of the most popular spots of the Town. This small port was of great strategic importance during the Venetian period and has undergone numerous constructions since 1300. Nowadays, the port is lined up by cafes and delicious restaurants where you can enjoy the secrets of the Cretan cuisine.
