One of the ultimate beaches to visit in Crete with the famous pink waters! During the summer it gets pretty crowded, and there’s not much shade, other than paid umbrellas, so go prepared!

Incredible beach. I would take our kids here again and again! Smooth pinkish sand, shallow water throughout the lagoon - it felt safe and we could relax with them in the water. The water is beyond anything I could have imagined!
