Private Mirabello, Spinalonga Island, and Agios Nikolaos

Discover the captivating beauty of Mirabello Bay, where breathtaking landscapes, rich culture, and authentic village life come together in a truly immersive experience. This journey blends history, nature, and gastronomy, offering a well-rounded exploration of Crete's eastern coast.

Begin your adventure with a traditional boat ride to Spinalonga, the historic island fortress that once served as a Venetian stronghold and later as a leper colony. As you cruise across the shimmering waters, admire the azure sea, dramatic coastal cliffs, and secluded sandy coves that make this region so picturesque. You'll have the option to choose between a shared or private boat, with an opportunity to swim in the crystal-clear waters along the way.

Upon reaching the quaint village of Plaka, indulge in the flavors of Crete at a waterfront taverna, where fresh seafood and traditional dishes capture the essence of Mediterranean cuisine.

Your journey continues toward Agios Nikolaos, a charming coastal town known for its chic atmosphere, boutique shops, and lively cafe culture. Take a leisurely stroll along its streets, soak in the panoramic views of Elounda's luxurious coastline, and unwind by the mystical Voulismeni Lake, where legend meets reality.

To complete your day, visit a family-run olive oil estate, where expert producers will guide you through the time-honored techniques of creating Crete's famous extra virgin olive oil. Discover the process from harvest to bottle, and enjoy a tasting session that highlights the exceptional flavors of this prized local product.

This carefully curated journey offers a blend of history, scenic beauty, and authentic Cretan flavors, making it the perfect escape for those seeking both relaxation and cultural enrichment.

Please Note: While the private boat is included in the price of this tour, the admission fee for Spinalonga is not included and is payable on the day of the tour. The local representative will assist you with this. Lunch is not included.
