Crete is the largest of the Greek Islands, as well as the fifth largest island in the Mediterranean Sea.

Claiming to have the longest summers in the Mediterranean, temperatures on the Island start to rise in April, with averages of around 24 degrees by May. In high summer the months, July and August average temperatures are said to reach 30 degrees, but it doesn’t feel too hot with the seasonal summer winds to keep you cool.
On this scenic island, Caravans in the Sun are pleased to introduce the new and exciting Creta Camping mobile home development. The park was featured recently on the Channel 4 programme, A Place in the Sun. The programme followed Manchester couple, Warren and Jacqui Sumner, who have been visiting Crete for 23 years following their honeymoon on the island. ‘Creta Camping’ and the mobile homes on offer from Caravans in the Sun were one of the options available to the couple who were looking for their own holiday home in the Greek sun.
This unique site, located in Kato Gouves has a lot to offer families or couples looking to relocate. It is set directly across the road from the sea, offering stunning views for a few of the mobile homes on offer. Located on the North of the Island of Crete, Kato Gouves is a beautiful seaside resort. Not far from the site is the beachside church of Saint Constantine and Helen, which is well worth a visit. Additionally, you can visit the cave of Agia Paraskevi and the upper village Gouves, with the traditional streets and churches, all within easy reach of Creta Camping.
In the nearby area of the park, there is a selection of fabulous beaches which are bound to satisfy every preference. If you prefer a quieter beach, just a little further along the coast you will discover a few secluded rocky areas that will give you a little more privacy. The seafront of Kato Gouves also offers a variety of amenities including, several bars, and supermarkets.
Just a 30-minute walk from the local town, the small campsite is ideally located with a choice of mobile home plots available either set amongst olive trees or with a sea view.
