[@siat11]

Thank you for this amazing video. We were there last Sepember. In Chania and the south in Frangocastelo. We found many gems of beaches. One beach I enjoed that made an impression was in Paleochora and another was Ilingas beach a few minutes froim Sfakia. Not many people and they were perfect in every way! I can't wait to go back and visit some of the places mentioned here. 3 weeks in Crete was not enough.

[@THATGREEKGUY_]

Thank you for your comment, Illingas is one of our favorite. August it is crowded (like most of the places in Crete) but June and September it's great. In Paleochora i love Gialiskari (to the left after the dirt road). Hope you come back to explore even more places. :)

[@siat11]

@THATGREEKGUY_ We are definitely going g back. I want to live there. I believe it was Gialiskari we went to. It was quiet with a small cantina type restaurant...and the water!!! The water....

[@THATGREEKGUY_]

[@jorunn62]

Thank you so much for this wonderful video. I have been 5 times to Crete, and I have been several places on road trips, both west, south, north and east, but as there are so many beautiful places, it is hard to choose during a vacation. A friend of mine says, you need a lifetime to get to to know all the nice places of Crete, and I think he is right. And you also want to go back and visit places and people you have met before. Marmara beach was beautiful as we had two nights stay in Loutro, and ended our stay with a trip to this amazing place, but most of the places in this video was unknown to me.

[@THATGREEKGUY_]

I love the south! Been living in Crete for over 8 years and some of these places discovered just recently. It's endless.

Some of them are not "hidden" any more but we will find more. :)

[@Desiregraphy]

@@THATGREEKGUY_ Right. I cant wait to see new spots from you :-) Maybe you can help me with following request: I do research for other unique spots and found Gaidouronisi (Chrissi Island) and recognize Greek government has banned day tourists and general visits to the island to protect nature, which has suffered greatly due to the mass tourism of recent years. Is this still valid? Or could I explore on my own? Don't get me wrong, I absolutely understand this procedure as I am also not a fan of mass tourism. Terrible how ruthless many tourists just deal with these beautiful places. But for people who act carefully and just want to enjoy nature, it´s a pitty not having the possibility to visit. Sorry for long text, hope you can help me with information. Greetings from Germany

[@THATGREEKGUY_]

@@Desiregraphy have been there only once about 4-5 years ago. From what i know, boats are still going. You just can't get to the beach and have to swim around the boat. But i think i've seen photos of people standing on the beach too. You will probably get more info at Ierapetra once you get there.

I've been 20 times on Crete but only knew and have been to 7, 9 and 10. The walk through Aradena gorge from the bridge down to Marmara beach is awesome! But not as easy as the Samaria gorge. I see by your beautiful video that there're many other great spots to discover! Thanks for sharing!

[@THATGREEKGUY_]

Thank you for your comment! I love Aradena! Will be posting more videos like this. If you want check also my last one. No one seems to know that place. :)

[@Chunga-MusicIsTheBest]

​@@THATGREEKGUY_ I didn't either! Enjoyed your hike there yesterday evening. But that's too risky for me nowadays given my more limited current hiking skills now I'm 63 years old (or young LOL). I did Aradena in 1993 and in 2017. But the last time I had already more difficulties to go down all the way to Marmara beach. I didn't remember it was that challeging. Have been a few times to Tripiti Gorge, not from Omalos but from Sougia. In the eighties and nineties no one went there, yeah maybe by boat. I remember one day I hiked there from Sougia and met a friendly man, he was kinda guarding there, I suppose the goats from the Greek owner. There was a little building where he lived. He was so happy to see a person passing by that he immidiate invited me to eat bread and cheese and drink raki! So the hike back to Sougia wasn't so easy any more with some raki's in the legs.

[@THATGREEKGUY_]

@@Chunga-MusicIsTheBest i would love to do Tripiti all the way from Samaria down to the beach. But must be with someone who knows it really well. It's not difficult from what i've been told but you can easily get lost. We did Sougia to Hora 3 years ago. That one was very tough. especially the 1st day from Sougia to Agia Roumeli. Preparing a "top 10 (or top 15) hikes in Crete" video. But need to go east too to get some material first. :)

Thank you! Well I live in Chania so I guess I'm a bit biased. But it does offer a plethora of options within 1,5 hours of driving. West coast is more popular I would say. To skip the crowds try heading south. Maybe around Sfakia area. Loutro, Marmara and sweet water beach.

THAT GREEK GUY it’s an amazing place.... I’ve found amazing cave systems, military stuff, old castles, Roman stuff, forgotten tombs... my fave place in the world.... I have been so many times I have lost count but it never disappoints

THAT GREEK GUY I love the variation in terrain... The Lasithi plateau is incredible with its green fields etc ringed by mountains and ancient wind Mills .. fabulous

@@iancastledine7284 was there last weekend. Loved it! Unfortunately didn't make it earlier due to the situation.

Wow thanks for the video I'm going to Crete this September and have a IST of places to go but now I'm reconsidering my choices 😂

[@THATGREEKGUY_]

You have a lot of options! 😁

Hello , we stumbled across your vlog and we are glad we have found it, when in the best time on the shoulder season to visit, May or September?

[@THATGREEKGUY_]

Thank you. I always prefer the pre-season but the water here is still chilly for me. If you prefer more warm seas, probably you will enjoy September. If you don't mind about water temperature, i suggest May. :)
