With this excursion , you will visit the eastern part of Crete. Passing by Heraklion , the capital of Crete , we reach the charming little town of Agios Nikolaos lying on the famous lake "Voulismeni" and a small port. Beatifull place with a unique atmosphere. After visiting the town , our trip continuoes towards Elounda bay. Time for a swim and lunch before sailing to the small island of Spinalonga , just off coast Elounda.On the island of Spinalonga housed the last leper colony (opened in 1903) in Europe closing in 1957. The old Venetian fort and houses previously occupied by a Turkish population which became their homes still stand, now empty. A small walk through Spinalonga is an unrepeatable experience..
