Athlete's world

About

Athlete's world, on Crete, sits in Kolones Piskokefalou, Sitia 723 00, Greece, a small settlement in the island's eastern reaches. First-time visitors should expect a straightforward convenience store rather than a large retail complex, so a short stop covers the essentials. The shop keeps a 4.4/5 rating from 14 reviews, a modest but solid record among those who have called in.

Its website, http://www.worldofcrete.com/, is the main online point of reference for the shop. Reaching the venue from the main towns is simplest by car, with Sitia the closest of the island's hubs and Agios Nikolaos further along the northern coast road. Heraklion, Chania, Rethymno, Ierapetra and Matala lie well beyond a quick detour, so the shop suits travellers already exploring the east.

Crete's eastern side sees fewer crowds than the north coast resorts, and the drive out to Kolones Piskokefalou passes through open country. Greek island cooking centres on seafood, olive oil, feta and other local cheeses, and grilled meats, which is worth keeping in mind when stocking up for a picnic or a self-catered stay.

Parking is usually straightforward in a settlement of this size, and the shop works as a practical pause between Sitia and the southern coast. Because the island's airports are concentrated in the larger cities, most visitors arrive by ferry or through a hub before continuing east. A visit here fits naturally into a day spent moving between the eastern towns.
