It is true that, as a beach, there are many better around. It has large stones and can be uncomfortable unless you have the right equipment. Ignoring that, it is beautiful. The views are stunning...

Spinalonga itself is lovely and steeped in history but as for a beach, perhaps not, a selection of rocky areas, large rocks where treading carefully you can negotiate your way into some small areas...

A moving visit to the ex leper colony inside the old Spinalonga fortress can also be a tiring and draining experience due to the heat in the summer. The tour guide recommended taking water with us...

Great place to take a dip to cool down after walking through the ruins of Spinalonga. Very rocky and there are many sea urchants so reef shoes are a must if you don't want to risk getting needles in your feet.

I went here about 38 years ago and remember walking down the streets, very eerie and looking in the concrete graves which had had their tops removed , you could see the human bones etc. There were was no cafe or shop to buy drinks then. We were staying in Elounda and I was looking to go into business here at the time renting cars, mopeds etc. The food and Raki was great
