Top Crete Outdoor Activities

A very pleasant boat trip, it was wonderfully windy so there were big waves on the sea. If you are prone to motion sickness, you should not take this trip. But the final goal was very nice, crystal clear water and very pleasant people who worked on the boat. The food was simple but super good!

We did the quad tour during our honeymoon in Crete and had an absolute blast! It was such a fun change of pace and gave us a completely different way to experience the island. The tour was incredibly well organized, and we felt comfortable and taken care of throughout the entire experience. The scenery was beautiful, the riding was so much fun, and we loved getting away from the typical tourist experience and seeing another side of Crete. We packed a LOT into our honeymoon throughout Greece, and this was definitely one of those experiences that stood out. If you’re looking for something adventurous, memorable, and a little different while visiting Crete, absolutely add a quad tour to your trip. Thank you for such a fun day and another amazing memory from our honeymoon! ❤️🇬🇷

just now New Although the sun was not to be seen on this day, the boat trip on the Eos was an unforgettable experience. The crew was super friendly and anticipated our every wish! The food was also excellent! All in all, a great day! I can highly recommend it ❤️

We had a very good experience on board the sailboat. Thank you so much to Petros & Thanos who made this experience very pleasant! The water was very clear, we were able to see fish, sea urchins, and even a starfish. The meal on board was typical of Greece. We were in a small group so it was very relaxing and very cool! Eucharisto Petros & Thanos!

The whole experience from start to finish was absolutely top class. The team were welcoming, organised, and made everything feel safe without taking away any of the fun. The bikes were powerful, well‑maintained, and easy to get the hang of, and the route itself was brilliant — a perfect mix of open stretches, muddy tracks, and technical bits that kept it exciting all the way through. I left grinning from ear to ear. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a proper adrenaline hit and a professionally run adventure.

The pickup went smoothly. At the beginning, you can specify your own hotel or place of stay. Depending on the information provided, you are then assigned a pickup location that is easy to reach. Afterward, we were picked up on time and driven first to a family-run apiary, then to Elafonissi, and finally to the mountain village of Elos. During the trip, our tour guide Carolina constantly shared interesting facts and anecdotes about the history, traditions, and ways of life on Crete - in both English and German. Because of this, the somewhat long drive flew by. On the return trip from Elos to our drop-off location, there was deliberately no more input from the guide to allow us some rest and the opportunity for a nap after this long day. About Elafonissi Beach: Overall, very clear and very beautiful, shallow water. A natural lagoon forms where you can splash around perfectly. You can also see the red sand in places (but of course not as pronounced as in the deserted photos on the internet). Umbrellas and lounge chairs can be rented on-site for €20, but they sell out quickly. However, the bus also has umbrellas that you can borrow for free. Unfortunately, the umbrellas are partially damaged from frequent use and are not very sturdy otherwise, so it is unfortunately not easily possible to use the umbrella in stronger winds. About Elos: Cute mountain village with excellent food. Overall, a one-hour break was taken. This was just enough time to eat, so you can either explore the village or eat at the restaurant - not both. We would have liked to spend more time there, but our guide told us that there are often complaints that even this one hour is too long (you can find such a review here and there in the reviews as well). Overall: Anytime again

If you like rappelling and diving from several meters, it's a great activity for you. For the 4-meter dive, you touch the ground at the bottom of the water when jumping, which I find less safe. The walk in the river that follows is a little less interesting.

Beautiful place!! Water was not so cold in April!! Long trip but you can enjoy and stay 4 hours on the beach, you can bring some food or get something in a store where the bus stopped ! They have good bakery! Then you walk for 15 minutes to get to the beach !!
