As the centre of the ancient Minoan civilization there are many archaeological sites to explore, Knossos being the most famed. Museums of natural history, folk art and archaeology scatter the Island. This wonderful Greek island is not just known for its ancient relics and old fossils! Young and vibrant it can be – when it wants to. With a cosmopolitan café culture, exciting nightlife, a lively music scene and chic shopping. music scene and chic shopping. The Cretan scenery is spectacular and stunning. Magnificent mountains, gorgeous gorges, lovely landscapes and beautiful beaches create an environment of unsurpassed natural beauty. Rare flora and fauna, marine and bird life find their home in this lovely setting. This is truly a nature lover‟s paradise. If you are into photography you‟ll get some brilliant pictures too! The fertile Cretan plains are home to thousands of olive groves, vineyards, organic fruits and vegetables and wild herbs. The seas are awash with fresh fish. This abundance has led to the development of the famous Crete diet and is a foodies delight. The Cretan Diet is internationally famous and prolongs life and health for all those who enjoy it. Here are some useful Greek phrases to help you get the best from your stay (though almost everyone you meet will want to talk to you in English!) Yassoo means both Hello and Goodbye Ef garys toe means thank you Kali mera means good morning Kali spera means good evening Kali nikta means good night We‟ve put together the following suggested itinerary so that you‟re able to get the most from your stay on this wonderful Island. To learn more about Crete, visit Completely Crete for a true insider's guide: Completely-Crete.com Day One - Kalyves Village Kalyves has two super beaches with soft golden sand and scenic backdrops of the White Mountains (Lefki Ori). Plenty of extremely good tavernas, some waterfront, others around the pretty village square, offer the hungry holidaymaker a fabulous array of food and drink. The locals are very friendly here and there are lots of shops, tavernas and bars, and a magnificent church, making this a charming fishing village and a pleasure to stay in. Try the beach front Taverna named Medusa. This lovely restaurant, ideally located at the gorgeous beach of Kalyves is just a 2 minute stroll from the centre of the village. The traditional Lamb Kleftiko is highly recommended. The paper wrapped slow cooked lamb is cooked with fresh seasonal and locally grown vegetables and potatoes topped with traditional local Feta cheese. Delicately flavoured with wild hillside herbs the melt in the mouth Medusa Kleftiko has to be the best on the whole island! Wash this down with a glass or two of George‟s (the owners) own house wine – a very pleasant Cabernet Sauvignon and you‟re sure to be ready to say: Kali nikta! Day 2 - Chania From Kalyves, it is just a short drive or bus ride to the historic and beautiful harbour town of Chania (pronounced Hanyar). This is a stunning town where modern, Venetian and Turkish traditional architecture are blended together making it a fabulous place to visit. First stop is for a leisurely coffee – maybe a strong hot and sweet Greek coffee or an ice cool cafe frappe – at the very chic Cafe in the Park in the heart of Chania on Tzanakaki Street. The park is well used by locals who use it to promenade and take their children to the lovely play area and to see and feed the captive Kri Kri goats. The endemic wild Cretan Goat or Kri Kri is a small brown stocky animal with very distinctive curled horns. Its usual home is the famous Samaria Gorge. After coffee in the Park, you can walk the couple of hundred yards to the famous Chania Market. Turn right out of the park and walk down towards the end of Tzanakaki Street and the market is across the road. The daily indoor Chania Market is very popular with tourists and locals alike, with all manner of Cretan foods on sale. Said to be the best indoor market in Europe. It's a fabulous place for all manner of spectacular ingredients that make up the famed Cretan Diet. It is has a lively and vibrant atmosphere. Greek Mountain tea, and numerous other herbs and spices, thyme honey, olive oil and raki are enticingly displayed to tempt the passer by. If you haven‟t yet shopped until you‟ve dropped at the market, make your to Leather Lane in the heart of the Old Town. From the indoor market's rear entrance, turn left and walk the few hundred yards along Tsouderon Street and soon the smell of leather will fill the air and you will be stunned at the dazzling displays of locally- made leather goods, from belts, sandals, wallets, handbags, and the traditional black boots named "stivania", worn by the men of Cretan villages. Your lunch venue will be the renowned and much recommended Ela Restaurant. Snuggled in the small winding back alleys of the Old Town. Ela means "Come!" and offers a welcome second to none. Ela can be found in the back streets of the Old Town of Chania, at Kondilaki 47 (turn into Baladinou off Halidon Street for the alleys of the Old Town). This is a wonderful place to eat. It's only open in the summer months as the restaurant is in the shell of an old Venetian building without a roof. The décor can only be described as rustic, with no plaster on the walls, exposed supporting beams and lots of overgrown vines and flowers decorating the old stones that surround you. After returning to Kalyves and indulging in a much needed afternoon siesta, we suggest dining at the gorgeous Aphrodite Restaurant in the heart of the village. Newly opened in the summer of 2008 this up-market restaurant is situated on the popular village square. In sharp contrast to the Ela restaurant, the Aphrodite is smart and very chic. Decorated with a beautiful flair the restaurant lives up to its Greek Goddess namesake and is indeed decorated with lovers of beauty in mind. The glassware, table linen, crockery and cutlery are top of the range. Diners have a choice of eating inside the plush interior or dining al fresco in the patio garden at the rear, where the aroma of jasmine flowers fills the air and swallows swoop gracefully overhead. The menu offers a wide choice of Greek food and is carefully prepared and beautifully presented. The staff are very attentive and are eager for you to have the best dining experience possible. Try the plentiful and colourful Greek salad, laden with fresh tomatoes and cucumbers and topped with local olives and fabulous Feta cheese. The cheese has to be the best the area has to offer. Or try the homemade Skafia herb and cheese filled pies, smothered in honey – a local delicacy. A plateful of deep fried potatoes and a wholesome Stifado (beef stew) should allow you to waddle your way back to your accommodation. But don‟t forget to save room for the complimentary sweet and a glass or two of Raki served at the end of your meal. Eating in Greece Guidelines At this stage it might be a good idea to read a section from our informative guide to "Eating in Greece." Tavernas The Crete Taverna is the traditional eating place for Cretans and tourists alike and in the past was an informal type of restaurant only open in the evenings. Now the name applies to almost all restaurants and most are open all day (especially during the tourist season). Estiatorio ...was the name given to the more formal restaurant, although the distinction between taverna and estiatorio is now blurred somewhat, although you will still see both names (in Greek!). All the traditional Greek and Cretan dishes will be served here, including: Moussaka - baked minced lamb with aubergines, potatoes and béchamel sauce Kleftiko - slow baked lamb with potatoes and cheese Yemista - peppers and tomatoes stuffed with rice and vegetables (sometimes minced meat) Stifado - beef casserole in tomato sauce cooked very slow Pastitsio - baked minced beef with macaroni pasta and béchamel sauce Greek salad - with feta You'll find some Cretan specialities too, including delicious pies (sfakia pie) made with lamb, some cheese ones, and also chicken versions.

    Holy Communion for The Season of Easter The Anglican Church of St Thomas, Kefalas The Church of England | Diocese in Europe Website: http://www.theanglicanchurchincrete.co.uk Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/StThomas-Anglican-Church- Kefalas-Crete-Greece-351855875016402/ Mailing Address: Box 421 Gavalohori, 73008 Apokoronas, Crete, Greece Welcome! Welcome in the name of the Risen Christ to the Anglican Church of St Thomas the Apostle, in the village of Kefalas, on the island of Crete. We are a congregation or “chaplaincy” of the Diocese in Europe, a part of the Church of England, one of several in Greece. Through our bishops we are part of the worldwide Anglican Communion, a network of some forty autonomous churches around the world. In this congregation we are a gathering of many nationalities – mostly British, Canadian, American, and Irish, but we are also from across Europe and beyond. We normally celebrate The Lord’s Supper, which is also known as Holy Communion, Holy Eucharist, the Mass, the Breaking of the Bread, and the Holy Liturgy. In it we read scripture and reflect on it, bring our concerns to God in prayer, and celebrate the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus just as he commanded his disciples in the Last Supper. The Church of England practices an open table. All who are baptised and take communion in their home church are welcome to receive at this, the Lord’s Table. We offer both the consecrated bread and wine. One may take both, or one or the other. We respectfully ask that you do not intinct (dip) the bread in the wine, as it has been determined that this is not the most hygienic.

  • Bonelli's Eagle and Bull Jumpers: Nature and Culture of Crete
    Crete April 2016 Bonelli’s Eagle and Bull Jumpers: Nature and Culture of Crete April 9 - 19, 2016 With Elissa Landre Photo of Chukar by Elissa Landre With a temperate climate, Crete is more pristine than the mainland Greece and has a culture all its own. Crete was once the center of the Minoan civilization (c. 2700–1420 BC), regarded as the earliest recorded civilization in Europe. In addition to birding, we will explore several famous archeological sites, including Knossos and ancient Phaistos, the most important centers of Minoan times. Crete’s landscape is very special: defined by high mountain ranges, deep valleys, fertile plateaus, and caves (including the mythological birthplace of the ancient Greek god, Zeus) Rivers have cut deep, exceptionally beautiful gorges that create a rich presence of geological wealth and have been explored for their aromatic and medicinal plants since Minoan times. Populations of choughs, Griffon Vultures, Lammergeiers, and swifts nest on the steep cliffs. A fantastic variety of birds and plants are found on Crete: not only its resident bird species, which are numerous and include rare and endangered birds, but also the migrants who stop over on Crete during their journeys to and from Africa and Europe. The isolation of Crete from mainland Europe, Asia, and Africa is reflected in the diversity of habitats, flora, and avifauna. The richness of the surroundings results in an impressive bird species list and often unexpected surprises. For example, last year a Blue- cheeked Bee-eater, usually only seen in northern Africa and the Middle East, was spotted. Join us for this unusual and very special trip.

  • Spatial Distribution and Abundance of the Endangered Fan Mussel Pinna Nobilis Was Investigated in Souda Bay, Crete, Greece
    Vol. 8: 45–54, 2009 AQUATIC BIOLOGY Published online December 29 doi: 10.3354/ab00204 Aquat Biol OPENPEN ACCESSCCESS Spatial distribution, abundance and habitat use of the protected fan mussel Pinna nobilis in Souda Bay, Crete Stelios Katsanevakis1, 2,*, Maria Thessalou-Legaki2 1Institute of Marine Biological Resources, Hellenic Centre for Marine Research (HCMR), 46.7 km Athens-Sounio, 19013 Anavyssos, Greece 2Department of Zoology–Marine Biology, Faculty of Biology, University of Athens, Panepistimioupolis, 15784 Athens, Greece ABSTRACT: The spatial distribution and abundance of the endangered fan mussel Pinna nobilis was investigated in Souda Bay, Crete, Greece. A density surface modelling approach using survey data from line transects, integrated with a geographic information system, was applied to estimate the population density and abundance of the fan mussel in the study area. Marked zonation of P. nobilis distribution was revealed with a density peak at a depth of ~15 m and practically zero densities in shallow areas (<4 m depth) and at depths >30 m. A hotspot of high density was observed in the south- eastern part of the bay. The highest densities occurred in Caulerpa racemosa and Cymodocea nodosa beds, and the lowest occurred on rocky or unvegetated sandy/muddy bottoms and in Caulerpa pro- lifera beds. The high densities of juvenile fan mussels (almost exclusively of the first age class) observed in dense beds of the invasive alien alga C. racemosa were an indication of either preferen- tial recruitment or reduced juvenile mortality in this habitat type. In C. nodosa beds, mostly large individuals were observed. The total abundance of the species was estimated as 130 900 individuals with a 95% confidence interval of 100 600 to 170 400 individuals.
