Things to do in Elafonisi
The idyllic and uninhabited islet of Elafonisi could hardly be more beautiful. Floating just off southwest Crete – they’re separated by a narrow channel you can wade across – it’s famed for its blissful beaches, among the most picturesque in all Greece. Virgin strands of pink and white sands washed by translucent waters await you. Nirvana for sunbathers and swimmers. While the beaches are its calling card, Elafonisi offers a tiny bit of heritage. There’s the dinky Agia Irini chapel perched on a small hill next to a lighthouse at the western tip of the island.

Reviews Elafonisi
“My husband and I were pleased with the whole experience. From start to finish we were kept informed of what was happening. Extremely good price for a wonderful day out.”
“I went away with my partner and this whole day overed things my partner wanted to do and myself, it was defiantly value for money, it was an amazing experience, the views, cave, beach, even the tour guild was so lovely and helpful. I would defiantly recommend this trip. There wasn't anything I didn't enjoy, I did not expect the stairs to the caves but the views were amazing and you don't have to go up to the Caves there was a beautiful cafe also.”
“Mynos and Rana were brilliant. The tour showed us key parts of island culture and history. Including some open times for us to explore independently was also gteat”
“Everything was amazing: the bus to pick up was running late but I got the message about it, our guide Silvia was very pleasant and told us so much, everything was smooth. Highly recommend!”
