·

Crete has been named one of the top 10 destinations in the world for adventure and wellness tourism in 2023, according to the Spanish magazine Hosteltur.

Hosteltur listed Crete as one of the best adventure vacations to tick off your travel bucket list, reported amna.gr. While all countries offer an adventure of some kind, the magazine cited the findings of a recent survey conducted by Mabrian Technologies, a Spanish travel intelligence services provider.

The Greek island occupies the second place, behind Bali, Indonesia, and above Algarve, Portugal.

“Crete broke all tourism records in 2022, despite the absence of Russian tourists, who are one of its main markets, and despite the fact that it is mainly a summer destination. In addition, it showed an increase in air seats by 17% compared to last year, both for domestic and international routes,” Hosteltur writes in the magazine.

“In terms of accommodation, it is the destination with the second most competitive average hotel price offered for the coming months. Finally, Crete collects 57% of the comments for active tourism, for activities in nature and for wellness tourism.”
