1 km east of Elounda, at the southwest corner of the Spinalonga Peninsula A rocky beach after the floor mosaic of the Early Christian basilica of Olous (Poros) on the way to the more famous Kolokytha beach; almost no space where to put the blanket; gay men, some teenagers and tourist boats on the deep blue water

Kolokytha Beach is located on the Spinalonga peninsula’s eastern side, which is relatively close to the area of Elounda and roughly 12 kilometers north of Agios Nikolaos. This beautiful beach offers white sand, turquoise waves, and a few tamarisk trees for shade. You can truly enjoy the beauty of the beach in its most natural state. The turquoise color of the water is astonishing and varies depending on the sunlight’s angle. It’s fairly quiet, which makes it a nice escape from all of everyday life’s hustles and bustles. Most importantly, you can find some shade under the tamarisk trees surrounding the area.

We can make a stop at “Skistra” or San Fokas beach where you can swim at the crystal clear waters, dive and enjoying the sun in these places where very few people visit.

The beach of Mochlos is small, with areas of sand and pebbles, as well as deep and clear blue waters. Around the area, you will find various rocky coves that you can explore at your leisure. Due to the rocky sea-floor, there are plenty of opportunities for fishing, snorkelling and diving.
