Food and Nature on the Island of Crete
Olive Oil the island of
Crete is home to over 35 milion olive trees, so you can imagine the importance
of olive oil production and its use in the local cuisine, and the unique taste
of the Cretan olives!
Spices there are more than 2000 types of
spices on the island, 160 of which are endemic. Most of them can be used in the
kitchen or in medicine. With not a lot of effort you can pick up plenty of them
while hiking on the island.

Seafood the sea around Crete is not just for
swimming and water sports, ... but also for fishing. When visiting Crete you
can also have unforgettable experiences by tasting the fresh catch in
traditional local taverns by the sea.
Meat Greeks are big meat eaters. Sheep and goats roam
freely around the countryside. The natural by products, like cheese, are at the
heart of local traditional recipes.
Snacks - meze dakos, fava, mizitropita and more - are typically served with drinks
like raki in Cretan homes and
restaurants.
