📝 Overview

Join our Spinalonga Tour with lunch and enjoy a full day filled with history, swimming, and great food. This tour takes you to some of the most beautiful and interesting spots in Crete. We start at the charming harbor of Elounda. From there, we board a boat and sail toward Kolokitha Bay. At Kolokitha Beach, you can swim in the clear blue water or simply relax under the sun. Meanwhile, we prepare a tasty BBQ lunch on board. The meal includes grilled pork chop, Greek salad, feta cheese, fresh bread, seasonal fruit, and a drink—your choice of wine or Fanta. After about 1.5 hours at the beach, the Spinalonga Tour with lunch continues as we head to Spinalonga Island. This small island has a deep and emotional history. In the past, it served as a natural defense for the ancient city of Olous. Later, it became a pirate hideout, then a Venetian fortress, and finally a Turkish settlement. In more recent times, it was known as a leper colony. During the guided tour, you’ll learn about each chapter of its story. Once we finish exploring Spinalonga, we return by boat to Elounda. Then, we take a short bus ride to our last stop. On the way, we enjoy a quick olive oil tasting, where you can sample one of Crete’s best local products. Finally, we arrive in Agios Nikolaos, the capital of Lasithi. Here, you can stroll along the harbor, enjoy a coffee by the beautiful Lake Voulismeni, or browse the local shops for souvenirs.
