About the area

Elafonisi Beach is a breathtaking and renowned beach located on the southwestern coast of Crete, Greece. Situated on Elafonisi Island, it is often referred to as a paradise on earth due to its stunning natural beauty.

The beach is characterized by its soft, pinkish-white sand, which is a result of crushed seashells mixed with the golden sand. This unique feature gives the beach a distinctive and enchanting appearance. The turquoise waters surrounding Elafonisi Beach are incredibly clear and inviting, making it an ideal destination for swimming and snorkeling.

One of the most remarkable aspects of Elafonisi Beach is the shallow lagoon that connects the island to the mainland. This lagoon creates a natural pool with calm and warm waters, perfect for families with children or those who prefer gentle swimming conditions. The shallow depth of the lagoon allows visitors to walk across and explore the island on foot.

Elafonisi Beach is a must-visit destination for those seeking natural beauty, tranquility, and a captivating coastal experience. Its unique pink sand, clear waters, and serene atmosphere make it a true gem of Crete's coastline.
