Synonymous with luxury and style, neither too busy nor too remote, it offers ancient ruins, a spectacular coastline and crystal clear seas. Eloundas harbour, known as the “Gulf of Korfos,” is a natural, tranquil lagoon which is bordered by rugged peninsulas, creating serene and calm waters, ideal for bathing. From golfing to sailing and yachting, luxury spas and an array of blue flag beaches, this golden part of Mediterranean paradise is hard to beat. Around the Elounda region, guests can explore unknown pretty beaches, jump on a boat to visit the island of Spinalonga, enjoy a walk along the peninsula of Kolokitha, and visit two of the most important archaeological sites of Cretan history: the relics of the ancient sunken city of Olous and the Venetian fortress on the island of Spinalonga. From Elounda harbour, there is a boat to Spinalonga every thirty minutes throughout the summer. It takes about twenty minutes to reach the island, while the sea voyage sometimes includes a sail around the Kolokytha Peninsula.
