Answer:

Crete is approximately 486 miles from Cyprus.

Step-by-step explanation:

Crete is the largest island in Greece and the fifth largest in the Mediterranean Sea. The Cretan archipelago forms one of the thirteen peripheries and one of the seven decentralized administrations of Greece.

Cyprus is an island in the Mediterranean Sea in the eastern basin. It is the third island, in size, of the Mediterranean, after the Italian islands of Sicily and Sardinia; is the 81st in size worldwide. It is located 40 miles south of the Anatolian peninsula (or Asia Minor). As such, it is considered in Western Asia. This island is entirely part of the territory of the Republic of Cyprus.
