Do you get high pollen counts in Crete? They are very high here in the West of England in June,and just wondered what the norm was.

If you want to visit during low-pollen, come from September on. The wild flowers and grasses, also the olive pollen will be mostly gone.

I just wondered,my son gets a bit of hay fever if it is VERY high ,and I just wanted to know if it was the same as England-I think it's grass pollen he has trouble with in June but not every year.

I find the worst pollen problems come from the pine trees. Only oil seed rape produces a reaction from me in the UK, but our pines cause a problem in the first few months of spring in Crete.

Don't let ageing get you down. It's too hard to get back up.

In the south of the England I suffer from hayfever from early June until the end of July.  In Crete I don't seem to get hayfever at all, maybe it's the wrong sort of pollen! I haven't yet found a website that gives the current pollen counts in Crete.
