Begin your day in the exclusive resort enclave of Elounda, where a gentle cruise across the shimmering waters of Mirabello Bay transports you to the legendary island of Spinalonga. Renowned for its imposing Venetian fortress and evocative history, the island offers a captivating blend of beauty and heritage.
Purchase your boat tickets directly at the Spinalonga Tours kiosk and depart every 45 minutes. Spend approximately 45 minutes on the island, with a small café available near the dock. Opt to enter the fortress and archaeological site for an additional fee.
Following the visit, return by boat to the tranquil port of Elounda. Then, select your preferred setting for an elegant midday meal. Choose from chic waterfront dining in Elounda, authentic seaside tavernas in Plaka, or stylish lakeside restaurants in Agios Nikolaos.
In the afternoon, explore the sophisticated coastal town of Agios Nikolaos, celebrated for its elegant boutiques, serene waterfront promenades, and the enchanting Lake Voulismeni. Enjoy a leisurely stroll around the lake, coffee or dessert at a refined waterfront café, boutique shopping, and artisan finds.
