The season runs roughly from May to October, with August the busiest month for ferries and beaches. Greek, Roman, Byzantine and Venetian remains are found across the islands, and Crete's old towns show several of those layers. Monk seals and loggerhead turtles live around the islands, and many have protected nesting beaches. A coffee stop in Chania fits easily into a day of walking the harbour and the surrounding streets.
