Elafonissi Beach, Crete Overview

Elafonissi Beach, nestled on Crete's southwestern coast, is approximately 75 kilometers from Chania. Famous for its unique pink sand, a result of crushed seashells blending with white sand, Elafonissi creates a mesmerizing and distinctive shoreline. This pristine beach is accessible by a shallow lagoon.

Elafonissi is renowned for its visually striking appearance and ecological significance, as it is a protected nature reserve. The beach is surrounded by dunes and rare flora, contributing to its untouched and serene ambiance. You may rent sunbeds and umbrellas from the beach for a reasonable price or bring your umbrellas and mats. Elafonisi's western side faces the lagoon because of its position, and this region is typically more breezy and crowded. Please remember that there are barely any trees on the beach, and the sun is extremely bright post-noon.
