On Crete, daily life slows in the afternoon and tavernas serve late into the evening, which suits visitors who like to eat on local time. The season runs roughly from May to October, with August the busiest month for ferries and beaches, so earlier or later trips are quieter. Horiatiki salad, grilled octopus and thyme honey from island hills are common on menus. The meltemi, a strong northerly wind, blows across the Aegean in summer and can delay ferries, so it is worth building slack into travel days.
