Red Beach Adventure

Discover Red Beach in Crete, also known as Kokkini Ammos. Enjoy red sand, blue waters, a short scenic walk, and a relaxed natural atmosphere near Matala.

Join us for an unforgettable Red Beach tour in Crete. Discover one of the most unique beaches on the island. Red Beach, also called Kokkini Ammos, lies near the village of Matala. It is famous for its red sand and wild natural beauty.

Red Beach in Crete is a quiet and peaceful place. It is perfect for nature lovers and travelers who want something different. Cars do not go directly to the beach. Therefore, we first take you to Matala by bus. Then, our guide leads you along a short rocky path to the beach. The walk is easy and adds a small sense of adventure to your day.

When you arrive, you will notice the strong contrast between the deep red sand and the clear blue sea. Iron in the soil gives the sand its red color. As a result, the landscape looks truly special. You can swim in the clear water, relax under the sun, and take beautiful photos.

In addition, Red Beach has a relaxed and open atmosphere. Visitors can choose to wear a swimsuit or not. Everyone respects each other, so the beach feels comfortable and welcoming.

Finally, this tour gives you the chance to explore one of the most unusual beaches in Crete. Join our Red Beach tour from Matala and enjoy a unique experience close to nature.
