Explore The Archeological Wonders Of Crete With Holidays to Aquis Bella Beach
There is a lot of opportunity to get up-close to the natural wonders of Crete. Visit the Archaeological Site of Knossos - and its famous palace for an idea of the Minoan civilization that lived here over four thousand years ago. The southern coast also has many expanses of coastline that are only accessible on foot, and the monastery at Prevelli is of particular historical interest as the site from where Abbot Agathagelos Lagouvardos sheltered and assisted the evacuation of Allied troops during WWII.
The variety of public beaches on the Islands means that the visitor is spoilt for choice when it comes to sunbathing, water sports, and encountering sea life. The Cretan Mountains are only around one hundred meters away from the coast, providing a high concentration of variety in a small space. The Lasithi Plateau in the mountain is usually cooler than the coast due to its altitude. Its flatness and irrigated fields make it an easy place to navigate. Here you can find the "Zeus Cave" (Ideon Andron) where according to Greek Mythology the infant god Zeus was hidden as a child from his father. The palm tree lined beach of Vai is home to Europe's only native growing wild palm trees.
The blissful harbour town of Hersonissos may have a wide range of party facilities, but resorts such as Aquis Bella Beach are also the ideal base for exploring the natural beauty of Crete. Among the most stunning of the Greek Isles, it is home to a wealth of culture, hospitality, and azure seas. Its landscape is wild and contrasting; flat, golden beaches are juxtaposed with rugged mountains and bustling metropolitans. Fertile lands and sleepy hillside homes make Crete a paradise holiday destination. Remnants of Roman and Turkish infrastructure still punctuate the region, along with architecture from previous occupancies.
On the island of Corfu, Aquis Pelekas Beach is among the most luxurious and highly rated holiday resorts, ideally situated on the sandy beach of Pelekas, a less commercialized extent of the coast well known as a relaxing location with extensive wild and unspoiled landscapes, while simultaneously being only a short distance from the town centre.
Beyond the mountains and fauna that make all of the Greek Islands so beautiful, Corfu is an excellent location for yachting and rambling. The Corfu Trail is a 222km long distance footpath covering the full length of the islands. The route is well signed a book accompanies the trail. Nearby, the adults-only resort of Aquis Agios Gordios is on the best beach in Corfu, creating the perfect setting for a dreamlike holiday.
