Spinalonga & Kolokitha Excursion

We'll meet at 8 am in Malia and head to Elounda harbor. There, we'll board a boat and set sail to the beach of Kolokitha, where we'll anchor for swimming and, optionally, enjoy a barbecue on board.

Next, we'll cross the bay of Mirabello to the island of Spinalonga, an abandoned site with a rich history during Venetian and Ottoman rule and various battles.
