Crete (Greek: Κρήτη) is the largest and most populous of the Greek islands and the fifth largest island in the Mediterranean Sea.

Hitchhiking on Crete is fairly easy, mainly due to the large number of tourists.

Except the capital city Heraklion, getting out of the towns is in walking distance and one can easily find the way with regular tourist map (which can be taken in tourist offices for free).

Hitchhiking by standing on the road works perfectly fine.

Mileagainst spent two months in summer 2010 on Crete, travelling and hitchhiking all over the island with great success.
