Hello. I'm heading to Santorini and Crete for a few days each this summer and looking for some places to rock climb and suggestions on how to manage gear. I've seen so many pics of beatiful seaside cliffs, I know there has to be some good climbing spots but I don't know where to start.

Also, I need to travel light so I will only have my climbing shoes and chalk bag. I'm not the free solo type, so I think I may need to find a guide to show me the spots and let me hang on his/her rope and gear.

Any suggestions?

Lots of new sport routes in Santorini, lots of everything in Crete. Not many guides, though. If you want a professional guide look here:
