Agios Nikolaos Trip Overview
An adventure-filled excursion for those who love the unspoiled nature and the wild landscape of Elafonissi which is considered to be a living paradise on Earth!
Our day starts early in the morning when the bus will pick us up from your hotel and after a beautiful drive, passing from picturesque villages that emerge through the green mountains, we will reach the area of Elafonissi.
The beautiful sandy beaches fringed with pink coral sand and the crystal clear waters of the sea and the lagoon will make you feel like being in heaven. Wade through the knee-deep water of the lagoon (sometimes the channel closes and you can walk all the way without having to get your feet wet) and head to the island. There are many small beaches on the Southside and the further you walk the quieter it gets. The water is generally quite shallow and safe for children.
After a 5-hour stay in Elafonissi, our comfortable bus will return us back to the hotel, late in the afternoon.
