Crete/Spili

Situated some 30km South of the town of Rethymno, and approximately in the middle of the island of Crete,
Spili has everything for the visitor who wants to experience ''natural Crete''.
Spili is known for its Venetian fountain with a long row of 19 stone lion’s heads splashing cool water into the trough below.
This is walking and cycling country, with many different local routes to see and enjoy. Spili being 450 metres above sea level offers the advantage of cooler evenings,
 most welcome during the height of summer. The days are hot but the evenings are pure delight, just watching the local activity and the sun going down.
Bicycle hire is available from Heracles Pension, situation on the right as you near the centre of the town coming from Rethymno.
