What to expect

You're in just the right place if you fancy trying out scuba diving or making the most of your diving qualifications. Crete's warm waters and fascinating underwater world will leave you wanting more during one of these guided scuba dives or snorkelling – the choice is yours.

And Rethymnon's location on the north coast of Crete is the perfect place to explore under the waves. You'll be surrounded by dive spots that feature the likes of rocky reefs and a plethora of marine life, darting around stone formations. But what also makes Crete an ideal spot to don a mask, air tank and flippers is its clear and mild water.

You can choose a beginner's dive led by qualified instructors who'll talk you through every step so you'll confidently breathe beneath the waves. Alternatively, if you only want to dip your toes in the water, there's also a snorkelling trip available.

Crete day tour with monastery, winery visit and cooking class

A chance to delve into Crete's culture and eat like an islander. On this full day tour inland from Chania, you'll visit a winery in Alikambos, explore a historic monastery, and take part in a hands-on cheese-making class. Joanna, one of our expert local guides, says, "this tour is the ideal opportunity to taste Cretan olive oil and wine, and to try local food that you'll get to prepare during a cooking lesson."After making your way through the scenic foothills of the White Mountains, you'll reach your first port of call – award-winning Dourakis Winery, a family-run business with decades of experience in winemaking and olive oil production. Enjoy sampling its organic Cabernet Sauvignon wines and olive oil before setting off into the countryside.Next, you'll head to the Monastery of St George. Set among sun-soaked olive groves in the village of Karydi, this early 17th-century retreat was restored after many decades of abandonment, though parts of it still retain a ruined air. You'll be able to explore the grounds and discover the remains of the old olive oil press. What's more, your visit directly contributes to the monastery's upkeep. Your final stop is Kefalas village where you'll partake in a cooking lesson to learn how to prepare a traditional dish. Then it'll be time to roll up your sleeves and have a go yourself. Prepare a meal using a recipe you can recreate when you get back home, and if you're feeling creative, you can even try your hand at making Cretan cheese.
