Chania, Crete · Adventure swimmers
📍 15km · 25min from Chania
A sheer-sided narrow cove cut into white rock on the Akrotiri peninsula. The water is otherworldly electric blue-green in a canyon of white limestone. Not for the faint-hearted.
🔎 Local Tip
Wear shoes for the descent. Go in the morning when the sun hits the water directly.
