Vamos Village
Time your visit to this tiny village near the White Mountains to check out the annual snail festival.
Overview
Whether you're exploring Crete's coastline or navigating inland hillsides, you'll eventually encounter numerous quaint villages. Vamos is one of the most interesting, with this ancient commune now orientated around the benefits of low-impact tourism.
Here, historic homes have been renovated using methods respectful of the local environment, while the tight-knit community is celebrated for sustainable cuisine and crafts.
