Istron is a unique community of people with their own cultural progression, their own tradition, and their own local dialect. Their locality rises gradually from a place where the sun shines on the sea, to the highest peaks of the Dikti .

The subtlety of the natural climatic changes of the area, and its high altitude shape the soul of its people, a soul that is rough-hewn, yet hospitable; a soul of the mountains, unwrought and fearless, like that of an eagle and exposed; a soul also of the plain, with refinement and reverence; a soul akin to the calm blue and restlessness of the foam of the Mirambelo seashores.

Crete is the cradle of European civilization. There are a lot of place of interest you can visit such as archeological sites, historic monuments and churches. There are beautiful sites of nature and great beaches. There are a wide range of activities we can offer you to make your visit pleasurable.
