Lassithi Plateau
On this leg of the Crete motorcycle tour, endless hairpin bends lead up to the Lassithi Plateau. The group takes a break at a small mountain chapel before heading back to the coast via Mohos, with its lively Greek marketplace.
Nida Plateau & Zaros
Via Anogia the route climbs into the high mountains to the Nida Plateau, where the observatory is reachable in clear weather. An off-road stretch of the Crete tour then drops down to Lake Zaros, famous for fish served fresh from the water.
Tripti Gorge Crete
Crossing the island along the Messara Plain, the Crete motorcycle tour passes through the little-known Tripti Gorge to a secluded beach – a genuine insider tip well off the main routes.
Matala & its Caves
The fishing village of Matala, with its world-famous caves, is one of the most soulful places on Crete. Once a burial site, later a hippie refuge, Matala still charms every Crete motorcycle holiday rider today.
South Coast Keratokambos
A sweeping downhill run of hairpin bends brings the combined on/off-road Crete tour to the south coast at Tsoutsouros and Keratokambos. Little tourism, long sandy beaches and excellent food make this the perfect final stop before heading home.
