Snorkeling in Plakias, crete
We discovered snorkeling late in life. We absolutely love it, the world underwater is so very beautiful.
These are all pictures we took while snorkling in and around Plakias. We do not dive, all photo’s were taken just snorkling on the surface of the water. The photo’s were made in the beginning of the summer this year and the end of august, beginning of september last year.
For every photo that is clear, we threw away about 30 :p
I hope you enjoy.

Crete Top Scuba Diving Places
Book you car Now :
Hello again ! In this video I will tell you about the best places to dive in Crete in my opinion. As always whatever you do my advise is to keep it simple !
No 5 place I propose I the beach of schinaria. Schinaria beach is located in Rethmno in the north of rethymnon close to the borders with Chania. The road is easy to to go and it’s about 33 km from the city of Rethymno very close to damnoni beach. But this video is dedicated to the sea. Shinaria has a diving center called sea dream divers with visitors all along the world. Under the sea you will see a lot of rocks that even form a small cave. In this cave there is no light and you have to bring a lens with you. You won’t see a lot of fish but the landscape under water is one of the best not only in Crete but also in Greece according to my opinion.
No4 is the beach of Elounda. Elounda is located in the south of Agios Nikolaos. An amazing beach with a lot of diving centers around. The best place to dive there is next to spinalonga island. You have to go there by boat a diving center will make the deal. The landscape consists of rocks and grass that are truly beautiful. There you will see plenty of fishes a big range of them. So if you like diving give a shot to elounda.
No3 is a place called Elephant’s cave in Vamos Chania in a village called Kokkino Chorio which means Red Village. It is called elephant’s cave because there are some actual elephant bones from ancient times in the cave. If you enter the cave which is about 12 meters deep. You can see stalactites and stalagmites and a lot of colors. Please note that there is no light in the cave it’s completely dark. So if you decide to visit Elephant’s cave please do it with the help of professionals there are a lot of scuba diving experts that can help you and provide the equipment.
No2 Mononaftis beach. Mononaftis is about 30 minutes from Heraklion City very close to the world famous Agia Pelagia beach. The water in some places can reach about 32 meters of depth. Again you can appreciate the underwater landscape and some cool fishes or even octopuses.
No 1 is a again a cave called blue cave. Before you enter the water you will see a huge rocky wall the entrance of the cave the extends till the surface. The cave has a depth of 12 meters. Be careful at the end though because the end of the cave is very narrow and swim one by one. It is very nice cave with a big length
