On this tour by bus, we take you to one of the most beautiful beaches in the World: Elafonissi beach! With many kilometres of sandy beach, this shore in Chania has achieved the highest ratings amongst world-famous beaches and is a must-see while on holiday in Chania.
The excursion to Elafonisi is suitable for everyone, and our new buses will take you to this Southeast part of Chania stress-free. With its coral waters, its astonishing pink sand and its shallow waters, it is classified as an award-winning beach worldwide, and this is why this “Elafonisi by Bus” excursion is so popular.
The tour to Elafonisi Beach starts very early in the morning from your pick-up point. Our A/C bus takes you through valleys and villages of Chania mainland very famous for their tradition and history. A small coffee break is done after a short while, as we approach the village of Topolia, on our way to Elafonisi.
After a while, our tour arrives at Elafonisi beach: You have around 4 hours to enjoy the tranquil scenery and swim in the crystal clear waters of Elafonisi beach. Arriving early in the morning gives us plenty of time to enjoy the quiet beach while we can swim freely into Elafonisi’s shallow waters and enjoy its pink sand.
For adventure seekers, this excursion to Elafonisi just like the Cruise/ Tour to Balos Lagoon gives you the opportunity to wander around the Elafonisi islet, which is located near the sandy beach. There, you can discover the unknown lighthouse, and the historic monument, devoted to a massacre that happened to this islet during the Turkish occupation of Crete. We heavily insist that you find this narrow passage to the island of Elafonisi and add some value to this excursion by bus!
After our swim to the Caribbean-like waters of this beach, we take our way back as we stop at the Village of Elos for a rewarding lunch, under the shade of Maple trees. Elos village is a traditional village in Chania, very famous for its chestnuts. After our dinner we arrive at Chania centre at around 19:30, completing this Chania to Elafonisi daily trip.
