Where is it better to go in September to Halkidiki or Crete? Where is better?
We are a family with a child of 11 years old. Do we want 4 stars with a bungalow and a beautiful turquoise sea with a good entry into the water? We also love to walk and see the new sights of the country. I set my sights on a trip to the Pollini Beach Hotel in Halkidiki, but I began to hesitate it would not be worse there than in Crete. We were in Ayia Napa that year at that time in Cyprus, it was super. Help me, I'm afraid to miscalculate. And I'm also afraid it will suddenly be cold? Is it Crete or Halkidiki?

Good afternoon! Your choice is very good, a very good hotel, with a good entrance to the sea. Convenient location, close to the village. Crete is also a very interesting island, but if you are going to Greece for the first time, I always recommend starting from Halkidiki... you just have to see the Aegean sea, view of Mount Athos, see METEORAS!!! See Olympus-Vergina-Dion, Petralona Cave and much more.... Have a good trip!))

Crete, and even more so Cyprus, is much south of northern Greece. I'm afraid that at the end of September in Halkidiki there will be quite cool weather. For excursions just right (if there is no rain), but for swimming in the sea - hardly.
In Crete, normal weather for a beach holiday lasts at most until mid-October (sea - 23-24 degrees), in Cyprus - until November (maximum).

Better go to Crete, there is also something to see in terms of excursions, and very beautiful nature. And there are plenty of good hotels, especially since there will be interesting special offers at the end of the season. So do not rush to pay for the tour.
We rested in "Fodele Beach" at the end of September, paid in July, and just before leaving, the price for it was thrown off by a third!

I know about the prices. We never buy in advance either. It’s just that we were in Cyprus that year at that time, Crete is not far from the Mediterranean Sea either. We wanted to see Greece, but my husband has a big fucking Internet project and all the funding goes to him. to exotic countries. And we are leftovers. As a result, I don’t know when we will go. It can be tomorrow or only in October and it’s no longer Greece and Crete. In short, I’m ready every day!

Good afternoon, once again, if you go to Crete, choose a hotel in the bay at this time .. or Mirabello, you can in Agia Pelagia, I was unlucky last year, I was in Rethymno .. at that time the sea was stormy, I even got to Santorini ... In any case, you need to go!!! Everything is relative, because no one expected such heat in Moscow, and at this time of the year in Greece it is difficult to say 100% about the weather. But in Halkidiki I swim constantly on these dates. Thanks))

Of course Crete. so it turns out that I often visit in late September - early October. You can swim and sunbathe and see the sights. a miracle island :-). Rethymnon has good options, you can walk around the town ... depending on where you fly from, and what hotel bases your operators have. find a good manager, will help :-)

Resting in Crete, you can swim in the Aegean (the most iodized sea) and go south to the Libyan Sea (crystal), and to the west Ionian (cleanest). If you take a tour of Gramvousa, there is a junction of the seas, from 7 shades of the sea, depending on the weather. there Diana and Prince Charles spent their honeymoon ... and what kind of cuisine is there ... have a good trip

And I would advise you to start your acquaintance with Greece on the island of Rhodes. We were at the end of September/beginning of October. Just lovely! We swam to our heart's content, drove around the island, following a very competent guide to attractions, a lot. We stayed at the beautiful Blue Sea Hotel. We also visited Crete this year, but we liked Rhodes more and this is not only our opinion. have a nice rest!

Crete is great. As for Rhodes, I wasn’t yatam, but it’s the first time I hear such that “everyone likes Rhodes more than Crete”. Ignore this comment.
