Elafonisos is a small island at the southern tip of the Peloponnese, in Laconia, only a short ferry ride from the mainland.
Beaches and nature
The island is known for its sandy beaches and turquoise water, such as Simos, Sarakiniko and Panagia. The dunes and natural vegetation are protected and need our respect.
History
In the waters opposite the island lies Pavlopetri, a prehistoric sunken town, one of the oldest known in the world.
