Crete is not only one of the most remarkable destinations in Greece, but also the largest of the country's 6,000 islands. 

In a survey of the world's best islands, voters ranked it No. 6 in the world. You'll need more than a few days to explore Crete's 3,200 square miles — from sunbathing on the pink-sand Elafonissi Beach to hiking through the White Mountains of the Samaria Gorge and meeting the spunky kri-kri (wild goats), exploring ancient ruins like the Minoan Palace of Knossos, and admiring the Venetian and Turkish architecture of Chania's Old Town. While the seemingly endless attractions are reason enough to plan a visit, Crete also earned top marks in the survey for its hospitality culture.
