These trees, which can reach several meters in height, are protected by the European Union&#8217;s Natura 2000 network (as is the entire island of Chrissi!) and provide a unique environment for many species of animal. Well-developed trails criss-cross the forest, allowing visitors to discover it while respecting its fragile ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Chrissi cedar forest is located on the <strong>north of the island<\/strong>, and offers visitors a breathtaking view of the sea.

It&#8217;s an ideal place for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the big tourist resorts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Above all, Crete can sometimes be a very touristy place. So, by moving so &#8220;far&#8221; to the south of the island, you can hope to escape the crowds of even more popular tourist destinations, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.la-crete-autrement.com\/en\/how-to-go-to-balos-beach\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Balos Beach<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.la-crete-autrement.com\/en\/hotel-hersonissos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hersonissos<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.la-crete-autrement.com\/en\/elafonissi-beach-absolute-must-see-of-crete\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Elafonissi<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.la-crete-autrement.com\/en\/visit-the-legendary-palace-of-knossos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Knossos<\/a>&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Organize_your_trip_to_Chrissi\"><\/span>Organize your trip to Chrissi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are several options for organizing your trip to Chrissi.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, you can book your trip from<strong>\n  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.la-crete-autrement.com\/en\/agios-nikolaos-5-must-sees\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Agios Nikolaos<\/a>\n<\/strong>a beautiful town in northern Crete, which we visited as you can see from the link.

After your meal, stroll along the quay and admire the colorful boats dancing on the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Still in the port, you&#8217;ll find the <strong>chapel of Saint-Nicolas<\/strong>, the patron saint of sailors. This little white chapel, perched on a hill, offers a breathtaking panorama of the sea. It is also a place of meditation for fishermen, who come here to pray before setting sail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-embed-handler wp-block-embed-embed-handler wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"[EXCURSION] \u00cele de Chrissi (Cr\u00e8te)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Sno87Wpa4Cg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you think you know everything about Crete, wait until you see the island of Chrissi with your own eyes!
