Private Luxurious Mirabello, Spinalonga Island, and Agios Nikolaos Adventure

Set off on an unforgettable adventure through Mirabello Bay, where stunning coastal landscapes, rich history, and authentic Cretan traditions come together in a seamless blend of exploration and relaxation.

Your journey begins as you travel in comfort with a luxury chauffeured vehicle, offering breathtaking panoramic views of Elounda’s sparkling coastline along the way. Upon arrival at the picturesque Gulf of Mirabello, step aboard a traditional boat to the island of Spinalonga, a place steeped in Venetian and Ottoman history. This once-fortified island, later a leper colony, is one of Crete’s most fascinating historical sites. Choose between a shared or private boat experience, with the option to pause for a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear waters of secluded sandy coves tucked beneath dramatic, cave-studded cliffs.

Across the bay, the charming fishing village of Plaka awaits, where you’ll have time to explore and enjoy a fresh seafood meal at a waterfront taverna (at your own expense). The tranquil setting, paired with traditional Cretan flavors, makes for a truly authentic island experience.

Next, travel to Agios Nikolaos, a vibrant coastal town known for its stylish boutiques, relaxed Mediterranean atmosphere, and the legendary Voulismeni Lake. Here, you can stroll through the picturesque harbor, take in the views, or unwind at one of the local wine or cocktail bars that line the waterfront.

To round off the day, visit a family-owned olive oil estate, where you’ll learn about the traditional techniques of olive oil production, from harvest to bottling. Sample the rich flavors of Crete’s world-renowned olive oil, gaining insight into why it is considered one of the finest in the world.

This carefully curated experience blends history, nature, and gastronomy, offering an insider’s view of Crete’s hidden gems and timeless traditions.
