Join an unforgettable Red Beach tour in Crete and discover one of the island’s most unique beaches. Red Beach, also known as Kokkini Ammos, is located near the famous village of Matala. It is well known for its striking red sand and wild natural beauty.

Red Beach Crete is a peaceful place, ideal for nature lovers and travelers looking for something different. Cars cannot reach the beach directly. For this reason, our tour bus takes you to Matala first. From there, our guide leads you on a short walk along a rocky path. This walk is easy and adds a sense of adventure to the experience.

When you arrive, you will see a beautiful contrast between the deep red sand and the clear blue sea. The sand gets its color from iron oxide, which creates a truly special landscape. The beach is perfect for swimming, relaxing, and taking amazing photos.

In addition, Red Beach is known for its relaxed, clothing-optional atmosphere. Visitors are free to sunbathe with or without a swimsuit. The beach feels welcoming and respectful, allowing everyone to feel comfortable and relaxed.

Finally, this tour is a great chance to explore one of the most unusual beaches in Crete. Book your Red Beach tour from Matala and enjoy a unique beach experience surrounded by nature.
