Crete is an island of character, a rebellious island, sometimes, but one that opens its doors wide before you even knock. Crete is like its mountains, crisscrossed by spectacular gorges tumbling down into the sea of Libya, to the tiny seaside resorts where you will relax like in a dream. Crete is the quintessence of the alliance between sea and mountains, many of which exceed 2000 meters, especially in the mountain range of Lefka Ori, (means White mountains in Greek - a hint to the limestone that constitutes them) where our hike takes place. Our eight-day tour follows a part of the European E4 trail along the south-west coast of the island with magnificent forays into the gorges of Agia Irini and Samaria for the island's most famous hike. But a nature trip in Crete cannot be confined to a simple landscape discovery even gorgeous. It is in fact associate with exceptional cultural discoveries. The beautiful heritage of Chania borrows from the Venetian and Ottoman occupants who followed on the island. -

Promoting sustainable production and consumption patterns: the example of olive oil LIFE08 INF/GR/000581 Report on the evaluation of the characteristics of olive oil production in Crete (Summary) Organization responsible for the action: ELGO DEMETER - Institute of Olive Tree & Subtropical Plants of Chania Scientific Coordinator of the action: Dr. I Metzidakis Chania 2011 Organization responsible: ELGO DEMETER –Directorate General of Agricultural Research, Institute of Olive Tree & Subtropical Plants of Chania Scientific Coordinator: Dr. I Metzidakis, with the cooperation of Mrs. A. Giannakaki Agrokipio, 73100 Chania Tel: +30281083434, Fax: +302821093963, Email: [email protected] 1 INTRODUCTION Oliviculture has always been connected to the history of Crete and apparently dates back as far as 8.000 years. It is connected to the tradition, religion, art as well as the social and economic life of the inhabitants ever since civilization started leaving its mark on the island. Today, olive orchards constitute one of the most dominant elements in the natural environment of the island, covering 65% of the farming land, and offer employment to almost the majority of its farming families. Oliviculture together with tourism make up two of the most important economic resources in Crete. It offers a significant income to the island and constitutes an interesting and cherished activity to a large part of its inhabitants. The aim of this study was to identify the problems, to come up with ways to take advantage of new possibilities-opportunities and to apply modern proposals – trends in the field of oliviculture. The main topics of this study are: • Identification and study of oliviculture systems. -

Hike Along the Libyan Sea in Crete, Greece May 15 - 26, 2022 $2,850* Per Person Sharing Twin/Bath, $450 Single Supplement
Hiking Adventures Hike along the Libyan Sea in Crete, Greece May 15 - 26, 2022 $2,850* per person sharing twin/bath, $450 single supplement A few years ago, we fell in love with Crete, especially its wild western part. Steep cliffs rise above lonely beaches with crystal clear water, white- washed churches and small villages dot the arid hillsides where the scent of pungent plants perfume the air. This trip offers a chance to spend time in historic Chania, visit the Minoan Palace in Heraklion where the Minotaur once roamed, and, best of all, hike part of the E4 long distance trail along Europe’s southernmost coast facing the Libyan Sea. This is not for the faint of heart as some of the hikes are on exposed, steep trails, and we would rate some of the hikes as strenous. *The tour cost includes all accommodation in twin bedded rooms in hotels and pensions, breakfast and dinner daily, all transfers in Crete, luggage transfers from day 7 - 11, 2 leaders, taxes and service charges. Air transportation to and from Crete is not included. For those who would like to visit Athens before our hike on Crete, an optional program is available (shown in italics). Optional Prelude in Athens: $638 per person sharing twin/bath Thursday, May 12, 2022: Arrive at Athens airport. You are met at the airport and transferred by private car to a centrally located hotel. Friday, May 13, 2022: Full day at leisure to explore Athens.

An associated tsunami event is known to have caused thousands of fatalities and destroyed many coastal settlements and infrastructure between the Levante in the east and the Adriatic Sea in the northwest. Since this event, the entire southwestern coast of Crete has experienced strong erosion so that near-coast geological archives showing relevant Holocene sedimentary records are rare. -
