Itinerary

Voulisma Beach

Voulisma Beach, also known as Golden Beach, is one of the most striking beaches in eastern Crete. Located near Istron and approximately 12 km from Agios Nikolaos, it is known for its soft pale sand, shallow turquoise waters and beautiful natural setting. The sheltered bay is ideal for swimming, relaxing and enjoying the Cretan sunshine, while organised sections offer sunbeds and umbrellas during the summer season. Surrounded by low hills and Mediterranean scenery, Voulisma is a popular stop for families, couples and travellers exploring the Lassithi region. Its clear water and vivid colours make it one of the area’s most memorable coastal attractions.
Amazonas Park

Amazonas Park is a small zoological park set in the peaceful hills of Kourounes, near Neapoli in eastern Crete. The park is home to a variety of exotic animals, with a special focus on colourful parrots, monkeys and lemurs. Visitors can walk through its landscaped grounds, observe the animals at close range and learn more about different species and their care. Its relaxed atmosphere, mountain setting and family-friendly character make it an enjoyable stop for both children and adults. This animal park is a popular attraction for animal lovers and travellers looking to combine nature, wildlife and countryside scenery during their visit to the Lassithi region.
