The museum houses an impressive collection of Minoan art and traces the rich history of this part of the world. Rocca a Mare Fortress is a stunning fort that sits in the water off the coast. Not only is there a great history lesson to be had visiting this fortress, the views of the water and the city that surrounds you are breathtaking.
Heraklion is well-known for offering a series of events every year that they call Summer in Heraklion. These events include performing arts displays that take place throughout the summer, with several events occurring at the Nikos Kazantzakis Garden Theatre. Another great activity that you can partake in on warm summer Greek days is to visit Agia Pelagia beach. This beach of white pebbles is a popular summer hangout for locals and visitors alike.
