- Elafonisi is located 76km west of Chania and 5km south of Chrysoskalitisa Monastery, in the southwesternmost tip of Crete. Elafonisi is an oblong peninsula, which often breaks in two parts by water giving the impression of being a separate island. It is a Natura 2000 protected area. The island is full of sand dunes with sea daffodils and jupiners. The endangered loggerhead sea turtle and several more rare animals and plants find shelter on the island; it is strictly forbidden to remove any plants, animals, shells and sand from the area.

Ohh it brings back so many good memories. We drove the same road 10 years ago and we had a gorgeous time on Elafonisi.
Happy to read your comment. Time for you to drive this road once again 😃! Greetings from Crete!
Checked this out before we tried it as I’d heard some scare stories. Was such a beautiful and fun drive. Thanks for uploading!
Thank you so much for the video. The drive is beautiful and a bit daunting for novice drivers. I watched your video before driving and was prepared for surprises such as random traffic light to enter a tunnel…. It made the drive much easier.
Great to hear!
Thanks for uploading! We're visiting in 2 months time and been curious and anxious about the drive since reading comments about it.
Nothing to be nervous about! Happy I could help. Enjoy your time on Crete! Cheers!
Top of my list of places i want to go on Criti this summer .. Cant wait ..! Thank you Zameer ✌👍
Always welcome😇✌
Good drive! Good quality! Thank you for your effort!
What an amazing drive!! Love it!
Thanks a lot of your comment. Truly appreciate it!
Cretan roads. Just have my head spinning around like I'm coming back to Crete. Great video!
Hurry back to Crete soon 😃!
Thanks zameer fore werry nice drive i like it 👍👍😃😃
Thanks for your comment!
Thanks for the VDO 😊☀️.
Magnifique thank you
cheers
So if you go from chania to the beach and just follow google maps of gps it will follow this road? Or did you search this route seperately?
I'd much rather drive these roads with a car rather than a huge tourist bus like last time 😅
The scenery is breathtaking, literally.
I totally agree!
Thats it! I moving to Greece!
Oh krete my love the memories you bring to us all .if you knew if you had a soul.
I was in a bus to Elafonisi from Agia Marina. The narrow roads were a bit scary. But the most scariest part was when two black birds flew against the wind screen of our bus..😮
I sat of course near the bus driver and we all jumped from our seats. Not the driver, I hope.
We were on that mountain part, but not yet on the very narrow part.
I loved Elafonisi, Crete...and I can never go there anymore! Elafonisi was not even crowded, there was even free beach chairs under the trees. I did not buy any food, because of the short time we spent there. But you could really buy food also there. The pub owners on the way said that we should buy bread from them, because in Elafonisi they don´t sell food...🍞.
I miss you, Crete...
I read on websites that there is a road from Chania to this beach through the mountains, which is 75 km, and along the coast, which is 86 km. The question is which road is this, which you filmed, through the mountains or along the sea? I read that there is a narrow road and uneven and full of bends, and I did not see that in this video of yours.
Thanks in advance for your reply, please let me know if you can because tomorrow we are traveling there from Rethymnon via Chania,, by rental car. And do you recommend going to the Chrysoskalitissa monastery and Kedra beach, Topolia George ,Topolia Tunnel, Cave of Saint Sofia...I think primarily because of the road, the safety of the road itself, thank you very much again.

Hi, tell me, please, is it a dangerous road? I'm afraid and sick of heights? it would be better with a small car or on a trip with a bus, thank you very much!
Hi, what about traffic on Chania-Elafonisi in March-April?
Brilliant, thanks for that what car did you use?
Toyota rav4
What was your starting point? We will be going there in October and planning the route. Thanks 👍
Thanks to your video we hired a car and went to Elafonisi, what a fantastic drive it was, 😀
Hi Zameer. Thank you for showing me this drive. We will be there in June & wanted to do it. My question is, are you allowed to do this with the rental car? Won’t it get damaged on the dirt road ?
As long as you don't damage the car why they would have a problem ;) enjoy your trip!
Hi zameer…do you any advice for the beach?I wrote that is better to go in early morning(I want to come there tomorrow from Falassarna)
Visit the beach after the 20th of July, too windy at the moment
@@zameerpactyan unfortunately I have come back to Italy on 20, so I decided to visit this beach today…in effect it is so windy but the place is awesome…it is like a paradise
Hi Zameer where did you start from in this drive
