Plaka beach in this glorious little village is a must do if you are anywhere near Elounda. It is small with a lovely scattering of local shops, several local boats to wish you away to the nearby island of Spinalonga, a rocky but nice beach and a number of great inexpensive cafes along the water. Don't miss this place.
A small quite pebble beach in Elounda.
You can see the ancient sunken of Olous(Elounda) from above or you can snorkel!
A beautiful deserted sandy beach.
You will to park your car in parking and walk 20 min until beach. its the famous and very nice crowed Kolokytha beach but you can try also the other two more isolated by the sides. 10.45am the first boat load arrives and our deserted beach is becoming crowed beach. They are there until 17:00. If you do not like crowded beaches try 3min walk more to the left from beach that is a smaller beach or at the left 10 min walk next from cliff is another beach totally isolated Vagi beach.
Amazing beach clean and tidy staff are attentive to you needs ie extra sun beds, beach is suitable for all ages and excellent for young children and the sea is safe as you can walkout a fair way, very busy at certain times of the day with the boat trips , but if you get early enough you can get a good spot, once settled it’s amazing views
