From Temples to Turquoise: Full-Day Escape to Menies & Choironisia

Would you like to explore the hidden wild beauty of Crete?

Would you like to spend a relaxing day on a private beach?

Then this is the destination you are looking for!

The journey starts from the Old Venetian Harbor, making your way west to the Rodopou peninsula. Its natural beauty is combined with the diversity and rarity of plants and animals, a unique minority only found in this small part of the world. The peninsula consists of sea cliffs and rocks as well as private bays with crystalline turquoise water which will definitely impress you.

At the northern end of the peninsula is the biggest bay, «Menies». There you will have the opportunity to visit the ancient city of «Diktynna» and the temple of Vritomartis, the Minoan goddess and daughter of the God Zeus, who was worshiped on Crete during the Hellenistic and Roman times.

As we cruise south along the peninsula, we'll visit an impressive sea cave followed by a stop at Choironisia Bay, an incredible private cove where you can enjoy swimming and snorkeling or just lounging in a unique landscape.

This is an ideal excursion for those looking for a truly unique experience which combines adventure and relaxation!
