Crete

Thinking about visiting Agios Nikolaos? If small Greek villages feel too quiet for you, this beautiful seaside town in eastern Crete could be the perfect mix of authentic Greek life, great food, beaches, marina views and relaxed holiday atmosphere. From local tavernas to hidden villages nearby, here is why I think Agios Nikolaos is one of the best places to stay in Crete.
