Review:
Elafonissi Beach is a stunningly beautiful beach that is located on the Mediterranean island of Crete, Greece. The beach is situated on the island’s west coast, featuring pink and white sand, along with crystal clear waters straight out from the beach.
This is where unspoiled, well-preserved sand dune landscapes meet turquoise waters surrounding the beach. There’s a large, inviting lagoon that beckons sunbathers to a refreshing and relaxing swim. The open waters further out are ideal for enjoying a little windsurfing or kitesurfing. With any luck, visitors may even catch sight of a loggerhead turtle in the process of laying eggs. Map
The Elafonisi Resort is a nice hotel on the beach.
