Unlike many other travel companies we operate on a trust account model. Once we’ve paid the airline for your flights, the rest of your money is held in a trust account. We do not have access to this directly and can only withdraw funds when you are back home from holiday
All of our holidays that include flights are protected by the ATOL scheme from the moment you book. So if one of our suppliers fails, you’ll get your money back. If you’re left stranded abroad, a flight home will be arranged at no extra cost. Our ATOL number is 11806
As proud ABTA members we deliver the highest standards when it comes to our holidays. So if you book with us you’re guaranteed the best service. Our ABTA number is P8283, Y6720.
What’s the weather like in Crete in December?
The Crete weather in December is quite mild and with frequent sunshine, thanks to its warm Mediterranean climate. It’s a bit too chilly for a dip in the clear waters lapping this Greek island and you’ll need some winter clothing if you’re exploring the beaches, villages and ancient sights in Crete. On average it’s the wettest time to visit the island.
Geographical influences
Resorts on the north coast of Crete, such as Elounda, Aghios Nikolaos and Heraklion, have slightly lower temperatures than those in the south because of the cooling northerly winds which can reach the island. Crete’s central hills shelter towns along the southern shoreline.
Averages
With an average temperature of 15°C, you’ll find the weather in December still lets you get out and about to explore on your Crete holidays. The sun will shine for around four hours from nine hours of daylight. It rises just after 7am and finally sets about 5pm at the beginning of the month. With an average of 120mm of rain across nine rain-affected, you’ll need to pack an umbrella for the winter showers. The sea dips to an average of 17°C so you probably won’t be going for a swim. The wind speed is a moderate 9mph.
