Winter is for good here, and indeed this is an amazing time to explore the "other Crete"
Crete in winter ... "Out of season" and "off-season" the right time to enjoy Crete's more peaceful nature.
A good time to pursue interests, studies, hobbies, and hikes.
By winter, we mean November until late March.
Winter months offer the chance to explore the uncrowded vision of Crete.
In some years there is significant snowfall in the mountains (the highest peaks always receive some winter snowfall).
Do well, be well, enjoy life!
