Hello all. We have just joined the forum as we have booked a couple of weeks in Plakias for mid-June. We got a lot of useful information from you guys via the forum (thanks) and it really whetted our appetite for a trip. We have been to a fair few of the greek islands (but never Crete) a few years ago and have done a spell of years visiting the Spanish islands (Fuerte, Lanza, Menorca, Formentera) and now fancy a change back to Greece. Really looking forward to the break. We couldn't get particularly good flights via Olympic so decided to book it all solo. Got a nice Thompson flight (dep 07:00) and booked a car at the airport. Not particularly looking forward to the drive but we'll get to see some countryside. We're stopping at the Plakias Bay - nice and handy for the Far End - hopefully the hotel is ok, nice and simple and relaxing. Counting down the days - Chris and Julie
