Gavdos, Chrissi, Gramvousa, Spinalonga and more
The small islands around Crete feel like another world: cedar dunes on Chrissi, Europe’s most southern point on Gavdos, a pirate castle on Gramvousa and the story of Spinalonga. Most are reached by boat in summer only, so check the season and the last boat back.
