Crete is the largest and most southerly of the Greek islands, located at the foot of the Aegean Sea, on the very edge of Europe. It is approximately 160 miles (257 km) east to west, and up to 40 miles (65 km) north to south. At 7 miles (12 km), the Ierapetra isthmus is the shortest distance between north and south coasts. The island has been 10 million years in the making, and inhabited for the last 8,000 years. A succession of civilisations have left their mark on the mountains, plateaux, gorges, and coast of an east Crete untroubled by mass tourism, providing a natural, historical, and cultural treasure-trove within easy reach of Makrigialos.
