Excursion to Samaria Gorge (Without Guide)
The Samaria Gorge, the most famous hiking gorge in Europe, is located on the Omalos plateau, in the heart of the White Mountains, and extends for 16 km. Its descent takes about 5-8 hours and starts from Omalos in the "Xyloskalo" area and ends in Agia Roumeli.
If you are a lover of the beautiful nature, you should definitely put on your sports shoes, stock your backpack with water and snacks, and start a day full of adventure and unique images that will be unforgettable forever!
In the Samaria Gorge, recognized as a National Park since 1962, you will have the opportunity to meet many endemic species of birds and animals, the best known of which is the Cretan goat, known as "kri-kri".
More than 450 are the species of flora of the canyon, many of which are also unique in the world, which is why it is forbidden to cut the plants you find on your way. The gorge is green and overgrown. Meadows alternate with forests of pine, cypress, holly etc.
Space and time acquire other properties inside the ancient canyon and such close contact with nature makes you reconsider and "see things in a different light".
As a moderate hike, you should be in good physical condition to walk it, as some parts of the trail can be quite difficult. In the summer, especially during peak periods, up to 3,000 people cross the Samaria Gorge daily. They usually start around 08:00 in the morning so that they can reach Agia Roumeli at noon, dive in the deep blue sea at the beach and take the ferry to go to Sfakia or Paleochora.
This full day experience is definitely worth the struggle, as in the end of the day, you will be full with exprerience that cannot be compared to anything. Let the adventure begin!
Excursion to Elafonisi
If we could describe Elafonisi in a few words, it would be the crystal blue waters, the white sand with pink accents, and the incredible sense of natural beauty.
Essentially, Elafonisi is something between a lagoon and an island, and what you see from the first minutes you approach the location will take your breath away.
It could also be described, without exaggeration, as a "paradise on earth", which is officially considered a protected site by the Natura 2000 Network. A coastal walk on the white sand will lead you to find crushed shells, sea lilies, sand dunes and over 100 rare plants.
As a beach, it is organized, shallow, ideal for both adults and children, who will find it a perfect opportunity to enjoy playing with water and sand!
However, it is possible to find privacy once you wander a bit and explore the secluded coves. Absolute relaxation and tranquility await you there.
A walk on the island, in case you are interested, is definitely worth it, as you will have the opportunity to meet the lighthouse at the tip of the island, where the church of Agia Irini is also built. Are you persuated yet?
Join this excursion to Elafonisi beach and enjoy every minute of your stay, at this place of unique natural beauty!
Excursion to Balos - Gramvousa
The reason to visit this place is the beach with the wonderful blue waters, the pebbles and at a short distance, the carcass of a shipwreck that has been there since January 1969 and has developed into a photographic attraction of the area. But the main reason is the castle which is visible from the beach to those enjoying their bath.
The castle was built on a steep hill of 137 meters. The purpose of its construction was to protect the small natural harbor that was being created there.
However, we suggest that you do not limit yourself to admiring it from afar, but go up, admire the structure and enjoy the amazing view of the Balos lagoon and the coasts.
The sense of relaxation and tranquility that this place can offer you, makes it an ideal destination for lovers of natural beauty, crystal waters and absolute silence, far from the sound of the city. The adventure doesn't stop here...
Next stop with the boat, is the lagoon of Balos, directly opposite the island of Gramvousa, and only 5 minutes away.
One look is enough to realize that Balos is not just a beach, but a masterpiece of nature that has starred in hundreds of postcards and has been adored by the thousands of tourists who arrive here every year.
The white sand colors the warm and shallow waters of Balos in all versions of azure and blue. The sea is very shallow and warm, an ideal destination for small children. In many places the sand has a wonderful pink color, which comes from crushed seashells.
Make yourself this gift, and spend a day at Balos & Gramvousa Island. You are for sure to remember it for a lifetime!
