Nature

Crete has the luxury of hosting two Geoparks within its borders.

The Psiloritis UNESCO Global Geopark is an exceptional destination for geotourism, offering a blend of recreation and education. Sports, hiking, local flavors, aromas, history, and people — everything Psiloritis has to offer!

The Sitia Geopark, located in the easternmost part of Crete, joined the UNESCO Global Geoparks Network in 2015. Explore geosites, follow geotrails, take part in various activities, and dive into the rich culture and history of Sitia.
