"Pink sand" beach I expected something much more unusual... you really have to get close to the water's edge to see some pink reflections and even then... Basic beach scenery, nothing extraordinary We were careful to book a French speaking guide, our guide did not speak French once during the excursion.

Simply great, a really great guide. Elafonisi isn't as pink anymore, that's true. The beach is still gorgeous and you can walk through the sea to another island - a special experience for us :)

We remain a little disappointed with our excursion because certainly the beach is very pretty and it has really pretty landscapes but the pink sand is non-existent we asked the guide who answered us "Photoshop" but we still did 6 hours of bus during the day just for that. The guide on the other hand was very nice and the driver very skillful. And the stops were magnificent Then on the beach you have to pay 20 euros per deckchair and it is almost obligatory because there is no shade at all on the beach.
