From Chania: Elafonisi Guided Tour

  • 4.20 of 5 ( 5 )

Experience description

After we pick you up in the morning from various designated locations around Chania, we will follow the green north coast just before Kastelli and finally reach the village of Topolia.
Topolia Gorge is one of the most breathtaking road trips in Chania, with plenty of opportunities for photos of
the Cretan mountains.The canyon of Topolia starts near the village of Strovles and it ends in the
village of Topolia, where the rock walls are very high and steep.
A large number of birds find shelter in the crannies, cracks and caves of the
otherwise bare walls of the gorge.

After a short visit for breakfast , we will proceed to the main attraction of the tour!

Elafonisi is located on the southwestern most point of Crete and is an oblong, which often seems to be divided into two parts by water, giving the impression of it being a separate island. The protected area of Elafonisi features magnificent natural formations with arguably the most beautiful being the pinkish sand which exists in many places, taking its color from thousands of broken sea shells and corals. The endangered turtles Caretta-Caretta and several rare animals nest on the island and it is strictly forbidden to remove any flora or fauna from the area. The exotic beach with its white and pink sand and turquoise waters is reminiscent of the Caribbean. Near the breaking point of the peninsula, the water does not exceed 1m (3 feet), creating a small lagoon, which can easily be crossed.

The eastern side of the beach, in front of the lagoon, is organized, having umbrellas, showers, lifeguards, snack bars and changing rooms. In Elafonisi, you will have plenty of time to explore the area, swim in the crystal clear waters and even grab a bite to eat! Depending on conditions we may have time to visit a local village as well, before hopping back on the bus that we will take us back to Chania!

Elafonisi is considered to be one of the most famous beaches worldwide (rated each year within the 10 best beaches in Europe and one of the best all over the world). With its amazing pink coral sand and its calm crystal clear waters, Elafonissi is one of the “must do” while visiting Chania.

Solo, couple or family, Elafonissi gets you amazed from the very first moment with the unique landscape that is formed and provides you with a lifetime experience that will make you indulge in the world of relaxation and joy.
