Temperatures in Crete remain perfect for a fall sun getaway, remaining warm enough for most people to be able to enjoy pleasant days by the pool and at the beach.

We have been saying this for years now and it may be your last chance to get an autumnal getaway in Crete before everyone else cottons on to its charms as tourism numbers are up already from previous years. More and more travellers are deciding to come and enjoy this gorgeous island in Greece while the weather is mild and the tourism crowds have thinned – but this may not be the case for much longer.

For those looking to enjoy a fall break by the sea, Crete is a great destination as temperatures remain warm enough for many to go swimming, well into the season. This means that if you book a villa in Crete for this time of the year, you can enjoy having some of the most famous and beautiful beaches on the island almost to yourself! Given that these beaches are prime real estate where it can be hard to find enough room to put down a towel during the peak hours of the day in the high tourism season of summer, going at this time of the year is a great way to avoid any of that stress and large crowds. So, if you aren’t someone who needs sizzling summer temperatures to have a perfect day by the beach, then a vacation rental in Crete during the fall will do very nicely, indeed. And once you’ve secured your holiday rental in Crete with us? Well, then one of the first beaches that you should check out is Preveli Beach.
