Cheap Ierapetra Holidays

All of our Ierapetra holidays are ABTA and ATOL protected.

Ierapetra sits pretty on the gorgeous southern coast of Crete, and is famously the sunniest place on the whole island. Its endless sandy beaches and laid-back pace of life make it the ideal holiday destination, whether you’re looking for a romantic break for two, a family escape to the sun, or a fun getaway with friends.

The town, like many in Crete, features an old quarter, with enticing narrow streets, and a waterfront district where most of the shops and tavernas are located. The fabulous long beach offers crystal clear waters and plenty of amenities for all kinds of water sports.

You can take boat trips from the port out to Chrissi Island, a nature reserve with a cedar forest and breathtaking beaches.
