Description
Elafonisi beach. A paradise you must see to believe.
Somewhere between heaven and earth, there is a Cretan beach paradise sculpted by nature over ancient times. On some days, this geological masterpiece is connected to the coastline of South-Western Crete, and on others, it is an otherworldly island you can easily wade to through a shallow sea corridor.
Imagine basking in richly colored waters of crystal blue and emerald-green shades of the intermingled Cretan and Libyan Seas. With your toes sinking in the fine white sand that is blissfully blended with generous flecks of pink from millions of crushed shells. The freshness of the whistling sea breeze touches your cheeks by leaving salt crystals in its wake. Not to mention the mesmeric sound of gently lapping waves that simply ground your soul.
There are many ways to appreciate Elafonissi, but none is quite as rewarding as a luxury Elafonisi excursion for discerning and detail-oriented travelers who pursue traveling at their own pace. We believe you deserve to be spoiled with a distinct service and bespoke details.
On the road trip across the golden expanse of West Crete, immerse in true escapism and luxury adventure from the comfort of a chauffeured vehicle. Let us encourage your travel curiosity and soak up the region’s unique nature trails which are timeless in their ability to awe. Prepare yourself to discover a feast of experiences that capture the spirit of Crete on our private day tours.
By the end of this Elafonisi day trip, have the inside track from your private guide to discover off-the-beaten-path local restaurants operated by families who eagerly await to serve their delicious dishes. Indulge in the bottomless Cretan genuine flavors and tantalizing aromas paired with the sun-fueled wines of Crete.
