According to some of the litrature I have been reading the tourists using Crete for holidays are mainly Germans, Scandanavians and British in that order. Funnily enough that is no change from the 1970 and 80's where the people I met fell very much into those catagories. Many Germans had large caravans and motor homes whereas the Scandanavians mostly tents.
The distribution in hotels and pensions was very much the same. In fact in many areas it was difficult to find an English voice. Those that did have tended to be back packers like myself, we seemed to be bottom of the financial pecking order.
As for residents, what is the national distribution. For example Russians are becoming more numerous are they in evidence. Plainly there are other eastern European nationals. Italy is getting more people from Romainia and Albania as there are still parts of S.Italy that speak versions of the language.
So who is landing in Greece or more particularly Crete? Whereas Italy, Malta and Gibraltar are feeling the force of the exedous from Africa is there any knock-on effect in Crete? Problems in the middle east have caused many Lebanese citizens to take up residence in Cyprus. Is there any outflowing from there?
