Cheap Holidays To Crete

Cheap Holidays to Crete: I hope you like the cold

For cheap holidays to Crete at the lowest possible price, it would entail a visit during the off tourist season. The height of the tourist season is from July to September. The farther your holiday is from this time of year, the lower the cost will be.

The charter flights from the UK and other European cities start each year in March and fly until the end of October. The nice thing about going early in the season or late after the peak is that the temperatures are milder. At the peak of the tourist season the temperatures can reach into the 30’s C and 40’s or from 86 F to over 104 F. That temperature is perfect for sun worshipers, but little else. If your main goal is to explore the sights and sounds of this mystical island, then cooler temperatures would be preferred. Because of its location, Crete is still warm as the winter approaches. Many guests and locals can still take a noon time dip in the ocean without wet gear.

Once the tourist season ends, so do the direct charter flights to Crete. There are year round flights that run a regular schedule from Athens from several different airlines. With flights leaving 4 to 6 times a day, looking for a cheap flight as a standby is possible.

If you are into fishing, then the winter months would be the best time for your visit. This is when the local fishermen are out and the fish are biting. This is also when the cheap holidays to Crete are at their lowest.
