Crete's august full moon celebrations

As the August full moon rises over the hills of Crete, the village of Manoliopoulo opens its doors for one of the summer's most anticipated local celebrations. Just a short drive from Platanias, olive groves and orange trees frame the journey to a village where traditions are proudly kept and shared. The rhythm of celebration drifts through the streets as live Cretan melodies fill the village square and traditional dances bring generations together. Alongside residents, you'll be part of a festive atmosphere that reflects the island's love of music, food and good company. This year, a celebrated Cretan artist joins the line-up, adding even more excitement to the evening.

Organised entirely by village residents, the event also helps fund projects that protect Manoliopoulo's heritage, making your evening part of something that lasts long after the celebrations.

Chania Highlights, Agia Triada Monastery and Stavros Beach tour

Tracing Crete's story from ancient civilisations to more recent history, this full-day tour blends archaeology, local traditions, time to unwind by the sea and a visit to a wartime memorial. Between museum visits and cultural landmarks, you'll have the chance to spend time at Stavros Beach, where soft sands and clear waters provide a change of pace from the island's historic sights. Kicking off at the Archaeological Museum of Chania, you'll explore exhibits that showcase Crete's journey from prehistoric settlements through the Minoan era, Roman rule and Byzantine times. From here, you'll head to Agia Triada Monastery on the Akrotiri Peninsula. Built in the 17th-century, it's one of Crete's finest examples of Venetian architecture, with elegant courtyards, peaceful gardens and a shop stocked with olive oil, wine and honey made by the monks. After that, you'll swap history for sea views in the coastal village of Stavros, where there's time to swim, stretch out on the sand or pop into a waterfront taverna for lunch. Before heading back, you'll stop by the Commonwealth War Cemetery above Souda Bay, a beautifully maintained memorial dedicated to the Allied servicemen who lost their lives during the Battle of Crete.

Rethymno daytrip from Matala and Agia Galini

Rethymno lies pinched between the Mediterranean Sea and the foothills of the White Mountains on Crete's northern coast, and if its history doesn't have you making a beeline for it, its looks will. Its reputation as one of Greece's most beautiful towns is well deserved. You'll get some top tips from the guide on your bus to Rethymno, but after drop-off, the full day is yours to explore. Wander through a honeycomb of cobbled alleyways, find the three-lion-headed Rimondi Fountain in the heart of the old town and keep an eye out for the scattering of domes and minarets which hint at the town's Ottoman influence. But no visit to Rethymno is complete without visiting the harbour, then climbing the Paleokastro Hill to look out to sea from the Venetian Fortress – the pride of the town.
