The magnetic variation of Crete is approx. 3.2 degr EAST
Greetings,
Dimitris
The largest island that makes up Greece is Crete.
The Name Of The Long Greek Island Is Mediterranean sea
The magnetic variation at a specific location like N 333154 and E 1291148 is the angular difference between true north and magnetic north. To determine the exact magnetic variation at this coordinates, you would need to refer to a current magnetic variation chart or use a geomagnetic calculator.
There is no opposite of Crete (Mediterranean island between Greece and Libya), although an opposing civilization of the Minoans was that of the Mycenaeans.(*The opposite of the verb create would be to destroy, cancel, remove, or undo.)
Searching the local phone book for a travel agent in your area would the best place to start when searching for a hotel in Crete, Greece. Travel agents often have insights that a website would not.
Greece. Crete is wonderful, large, mountainous, and has a violent history. People of Cretan origins consider themselves Cretans first and Greeks second. Greeks with their surname ending in "akis" are of Cretan stock.
Gran Canaria and Tenerife both have a sunny side. Those would be the hottest places in May.
London (UK) is typically 2 hours behind Crete (Greece). When it is 12:00 PM in Crete, it would be 10:00 AM in London. However, please note that this difference may vary depending on daylight saving time changes in each location.
Well...... The best answer would be Athens, but remember, Greece was not an organized country then. If you count Crete and all the islands, there are many. But back then, Athens was still an important city.
They would not arrive at the correct location. True north refers to the rotational pole. Compasses point roughly towards the magnetic pole. I say roughly because geographic and man made features can distort the magnetic waves. The rotational and magnetic pole are not at the same place. Most maps are drawn according to the rotational pole (true north).
First of all, we're pretty sure that you're referring to "variation", not "declaration".Magnetic variation is the difference between the direction from you to the north pole (called "true north"), and the direction in which your magnetic compass points.That difference changes with your position on earth, because the north pole and theplace your compass points to are two different places. If you were standing at the point that's exactly halfway between them, then your compass would point exactly away from the north pole. And if you're not between them, but you're standing on the extension of the line between them, then your compass it pointing at the north pole, because both points are in the same direction from you.If you look at a navigational map, you will see lines of magnetic variation printed on the map. If you read your magnetic compass and apply the magnetic variation (printed on the map), you can calculate the direction of TRUE north.
In Greece, Cyprus and parts of Southern Italy (a variation of ancient Greek)
