3ELAFONISOS

It’s mainly Greek tourists and passing yachts who visit Elafonisi, along with a handful of foreign tourists road-tripping the Peloponnese or heading overland to Kythira.

People come for the lip-smackingly fresh fish (try the barbouni) served in the tavernas of the small port and the soft white sand beaches. In fact, it’s one of the best secret destinations for sandy beaches – the most picturesque of which is the double beach at Simos.
