The Lagoon of Chania that looks like an exotic island, covered with white sand with pink shades and blue waters. Elfonisi is the beach you should definitely visit. The small island is protected by the Natura 2000 network because of the sand dunes and over 100 rare plants, such as sea lilies. The tiny pink shells on the sand, the shallow turquoise waters and the small coves take every visitor’s breath away, who arrive from all over Crete to see the scenery up close and enjoy the waters.
