Spinalonga & Kolokitha Excursion

We'll meet at 8 am in Malia and head to Elounda harbor. There, we'll climb aboard a boat and set sail to the beach of Kolokitha, where we'll drop anchor so you can take a swim and, if you wish, enjoy a barbecue on board.

Next, we'll cross the bay of Mirabello and make our way to the island of Spinalonga, an abandoned location with a history of Venetian and Ottoman rule as well as various battles.

During the tour, we'll see the great fortress and imposing walls that protected this islet. Notably, it served as a leper colony in the early 20th century.

After learning about Cretan history, we'll sail back to Malia, arriving at around 7 pm.
