Elafonisi & Chrysoskalitissa Monastery Tour
The Pink Sand Experience
Our journey begins at the historic Chrysoskalitissa Monastery, a stunning whitewashed fortress-like complex perched high on a cliff overlooking the Libyan Sea. According to legend, one of the 90 steps leading to the top is made of pure gold, but only those truly pure of heart can see it. Explore its peaceful courtyard and admire the breathtaking, endless blue horizon.
Next, we head to the world-famous Elafonisi, often voted among the most beautiful beaches on the planet. This exotic paradise is known for its unique pink coral sand and shallow, crystal-clear turquoise lagoons. Whether you choose to relax under the Cretan sun or wade through the warm waters to reach the protected islet, the tropical scenery will leave you speechless.
Combining deep-rooted religious tradition with one of Nature's most spectacular coastal landscapes, this tour is a "must-do" for anyone visiting Crete.
