Travelogue 2001 Crete
From Heraklion to Agios Pavlos

Dagmar and our two scooters on Crete
September 30th we, that is Dagmar and me, touched down in Heraklion. We only had booked the flight and in the next moring we rented two scooters and started the trip. Important: It is not the price that is most important for the rental decision, but whether there is service on the whole island.

landscape and a building with holiday apartments near Agios Pavlos, Crete
Our next stop was Agios Pavlos, a tiny village with wonderful food. We found an apartment in this lonely located house.
beach near Agios Pavlos, Crete
The main beach in Agios Pavlos is nothing special, but only meters from our home we found this little paradise with the clearest water we ever swam in.

The only disadvantage was that we had to climb quite a bit on our way back.
