It is built around a magnificent lagoon in a deep blue bay on one of the most beautiful spots os the Mediterranean. The beauty here is endless with the seasons succeeding one another. There are vine-covered terrace cafes for people watching along the waterfront of this enchanting harbor. An hour and a half drive away, the majestic ruin of Knossos illuminates one of the most advanced ancient civilizations ever discovered.
Get a taxi from port to Elounda pretty harbour surrounded by restaurants and bars ,book a trip to Spinalonga on a local boat for a fraction of the normal tourist price .
Loved it. Walk to the left and around the island to the beaches

Palace of Knossos was historical but mostly ruins. Visit to typical village was charming.

We booked an excursion and had a leisurely drive up into the hills on a very comfortable modern bus (wear a sea-sick patch) and saw some beautiful scenery. We made a couple of stops to browse and shop.
