By far one of the most beautiful beaches on the island, Elafonissi is situated on the south west coast. A tropical effect is created by its white and pink coral sands. Head to the right for shallow water in a small enclosed lagoon ideal for the children. A walk through the lagoon to the islet is most worthwhile as you will discover this unique coastline.

  • Amazing beach and highly recommend.

    I'm still in awe thinking about how beautiful this beach was. It's so hard to get good photos of it, as they just dont seem to show the brilliant and natural colors that you can visually see. I absolutely love beaches and have been to well over 100 of them. This is the most beautiful one I have ever seen. It didn't disappoint! It's a little bit of a walk to get to it from where the bus stops. It can get a little crowded, but you can walk about thigh high through the water to go across to another patch of land that had areas available to put a towel out and enjoy the scenery. It really does have pink sand! Beautiful!

  • Great trip

    The company reached out the day before the trip to confirm the meeting point, which I appreciate. We have enough time to explore the spots and enough time to be on the beach.

  • Nice trip but

    Enjoyed our Guide, Simone, our guide and our driver however. We traveled to Elafonisi on Oct. 1. We picked people up for a day trip to Knossos excursion along with our Elafonisi outing. I believe that combining the two added 2 or more hours of bus travel to the trip… that was unfortunate.

  • A heavenly landscape... but no mute button for the guide!

    Everything went very well overall: fluid organization, respected schedules, and a magnificent circuit to a beach that lives up to its reputation! On the other hand, the three-hour round trip was a bit arduous: our guide kept speaking in English, flooding the bus with explanations without pause. It is impossible to calmly enjoy the scenery or just relax during the journey. A small explanatory leaflet would have been more than enough, and would have allowed everyone to experience the journey more serenely. Too bad, because the excursion itself is superb — there was only a little silence left to make it perfect!

  • Great trip! Informative guide
