Elafonisi is translated from Greek as Deer island. However, there are no deers but there’s pink sand! This place is so unique with its unbelievable colors, and unique history. Beaches are very well equipped. You can rent beach beds, umbrellas and have lunch here.

One more place that we’re going to visit on our way is Cave of Agia Sofia with impressive stalactites and stalagmites as well as Hrisoskalitissa monastery.
