Back to newsPopular travel bloggers have been promoting Eastern Crete and the island of Thasos to audiences in the Netherlands, boosting the region's visibility in the Dutch tourism market. The campaign highlights Eastern Crete as a destination, drawing attention to its beaches, landscapes, and local culture. The Netherlands is one of Greece's significant tourism source markets, and increased blogger coverage typically leads to higher visitor numbers in the following season. Tourists from the Netherlands and other markets planning to visit Eastern Crete can explore areas such as Agios Nikolaos, Elounda, Sitia, and the Lasithi Plateau. Eastern Crete is generally less crowded than the western part of the island, offering a quieter alternative for travelers seeking authentic Cretan experiences away from peak tourist zones.
