The largest island of Greece (5)

I believe the answer is:

crete

(Other definitions for crete that I've seen before include "Mediterranean island with Minoan remains" , "Island Germans took, 1941" , "Major island south of Greece" , "Mediterranean island, capital Heraklion" , "Largest Greek island" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
