What you can expect

Begin your adventure with a scenic drive from the north coast to the southwest of Crete, where you'll be treated to breathtaking views of nature and picturesque mountain villages along the way. Your destination is one of Crete's most stunning beaches: Elafonisi.

Elafonisi is renowned for its soft white sand and vibrant turquoise waters. Relax on the beach, swim in the cool, clear water, and marvel at the unique pink sand, created from crushed shells. This beach offers the perfect escape for everyone.

The small lagoon at Elafonisi is ideal for children. Shallow and calm, it's perfect for paddling and swimming. You can cross the lagoon to reach a small island, where you can explore beautiful dunes and the local natural surroundings.

Towards the sea, Elafonisi features a steep, rocky ridge—the heart of the island. The sandy area between the ridge and the coast was formed over thousands of years from river deposits, giving the island its distinct, desert-like appearance.

Elafonisi is also an important site for wildlife. It's a nesting area for the endangered Caretta Caretta sea turtle and a resting spot for migratory birds travelling from Europe to Africa. The island's unique environment makes it a special place for nature lovers.

This tour combines relaxation, exploration, and natural beauty. Enjoy the exotic beaches, explore the small island, and appreciate the diverse wildlife. Elafonisi is truly a must-see destination in Crete.
