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.

    Charter bus picked up us at a nearby location and drove us to the beach. We stopped at Agia Sophia cave along the way and a restaurant on the way back. The beach was stunning!!! Best beach I’ve ever been to! It was nice to have the bus drive us down the tough roads, especially after we were tired from the sun

  • Enjoyable trip to an amazing beach on Crete.

    Well organised trip around the north west part of the island - an air conditioned bus, some history from the guide en route and a visit to Agia Sofia Cave and onto Elafonissi beach and lunch on the return trip with an amazing view from the mountains.

    Two tours were emalgamated and we wasted a lot of time taking people to the harbour for Balos and Granvousa ship. Not enough time to visit the cave ... And we had to pick people from the harbour again. Wasted more time. Disappointed to say the least ...

    It was a fun afternoon to the pink sand beach, although a very long bus ride it was a fun time. The staff did a great job explaining the history of the landscape we passed through, and both stops along the way were worthwhile. I wish the trip was a little shorter and the beach a little less crowded, but overall a fun day.

  • Excellent experience

    This was a great tour. Our tour guide Joanne was very knowledgeable and provided everything we needed to know at the appropriate time. Our driver was very professional and his driving skills were top notch!
