    Elafonissi Beach

    This is your chance to visit one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Elafonissi is a heaven on earth, with soft white – pink sand, exotic crystal waters and cedar trees reaching the coast line. It is located in the southwestern side of Crete. We pick you up from your Hotel area around 7:30 am. We would like to remind you to be at your assigned location promptly to avoid delays. Our first stop is by the traditional village Elos, where you have the possibility for breakfast. On our way to Elafonissi you will be able to see small traditional villages combined with a typical Mediterranean scenery as well as the rugged landscape around the Topolia Gorge. Once we have reached Elafonissi, you will have 4 hours of free time to soak in the amazing sun and enjoy all the shades of blue this beach has to offer. On the way back we have a stop for lunch; here you can have a coffee, refreshments or have a lunch, if you feel like it ( not included in the price)
