Embark on a poignant journey to Spinalonga Island, a truly captivating destination that blends stunning natural beauty with a powerful and moving history. Just a short boat ride from the picturesque villages of Plaka or Elounda, you'll discover a Venetian fortress that later became one of Europe's last active leper colonies. As you explore the island's well-preserved fortifications and the remnants of the leper community's houses, shops, and church, you'll gain a profound insight into the lives of those who lived in isolation here. The atmosphere is both eerie and incredibly evocative, a testament to human resilience in the face of hardship. Beyond its poignant past, Spinalonga offers breathtaking panoramic views of the turquoise Mirabello Bay, making it a truly unforgettable experience.
