Of course you can also make an entire day of basking at the sun on any one of the beaches available to you – Rethymnon beach is only minutes away by car. Back home, amid the modern interior, you’re encouraged to take it easy. Put your feet up and relax with a cup of coffee.

The latter is where you’ll find most of the crowds, but a quick stroll up Paleokastro Hill and you’ll be away from the masses, gazing out at the Cretan Sea from the star-shaped citadel of the Fortezza.
