Because the island is so big, it is hard for anybody to discover most of the hidden beauties plus the local everyday life and traditions, within a couple of weeks. However you can get a taste of the authentic Crete in a few days, if you know where to go and what to do (according to your wishes and interests).
Explore
fantastic beaches with crystal clear water, mostly very well hidden from the tourist crowds
Visit

Feel
life by many local stories based in the villages you visit (about pirates, heroic rebels, brides’ kidnapping, etc.)
Enjoy
at a local village festival with traditional food and Cretan music – you will be made most welcome!
