Yoga Plus is situated in the bay of Agios Pavlos on the southern coast of Crete. The nearest town is Agia Galini, approximately 15km away. Because of this relative remoteness, travel to Agios Pavlos can be a little less easy than the usual package tour arrangements.
Crete has two international airports, Heraklion (Iraklion) and Hania (Chania), served by flights from most European countries, both charter and schedule.
A few suggestions for finding flights to Crete from the UK:
• Easy Jet - www.easyjet.com New from Gatwick direct to Heraklion
• www.firstchoice.co.uk/flights tel: 0870 850 3999
• www.flythomascook.com
• www.mytravel.com tel: 0870 238 7777

We recommend that you book flights well in advance as, at the peak time, airline seats do go very quickly. Also, flights do tend to be cheaper the earlier you book.
It is advisable to check on flight availability at the same time that you make your enquiry about space at Yoga Plus.
