Embark on a journey to one of Crete’s most breathtaking natural wonders — Elafonisi Beach, famous worldwide for its shimmering pink sand and dazzling turquoise waters.
Your adventure begins with a scenic drive through the White Mountains, passing olive groves, small villages, and dramatic gorges. Along the way, your escort will share local insights, stories, and tips to make the most of your day.
When you arrive, a short 20-minute downhill path will lead you to paradise. Elafonisi is more than just a beach — it’s a protected natural area where shallow lagoons sparkle under the sun, making it ideal for both swimmers and families with children. Cross the narrow sandbar to the tiny islet, discover its little chapel, and take in panoramic views that will stay with you forever.
You’ll enjoy around 4 hours of free time to relax, swim, explore hidden coves, or simply sink your feet into the soft pink-tinted sand. Don’t forget your camera — Elafonisi is one of the most photographed beaches in Greece.
On the way back, we’ll stop at the charming mountain village of Elos. Surrounded by chestnut trees, this traditional village is the perfect place to taste authentic Cretan cuisine, try local honey, or enjoy a refreshing coffee in the shade. The stop is optional, but highly recommended for anyone wanting to experience Crete beyond the beach.
Finally, relax on the comfortable drive back to Chania, carrying with you not only photos but also unforgettable memories of a day that combines natural beauty, relaxation, and authentic culture.
