Location
Between the two most beautifull beaches of Crete
Meltemi tavern is located on the beautifull village of Amygdalokefali, in Chania,
Crete. its is between the road that connects two of the most beautifull beaches of
Crete, Elafonisi and Falassarna. .
Elafonisi, is one of the destinations that should not be excluded from your holiday plan. Elafonisi is something between an island and a promontory because to get there you will need to walk in water. A place of particular natural beauty and a Natura protected area. The sand in Elafonisi is white but in several spots it has a pink hue from the thousands of broken shells in it. The waters are crystal clear and their aqua blue color brings to mind an exotic paradise. The small isles with the very fine white sand which turns pink in many spots, the lagoon, the turquoise shallow waters and the captivating landscape of Crete will offer you unique moments of pleasure and leisure.
Falassarna is now one of the most famous destinations in Crete. It is part of the Natura network, both due to its variety of flora and fauna and as an area of outstanding natural beauty.
Falassarna beach has been voted the most beautiful beach of Crete and is rated as one of the 10 best beaches in all of Europe. It has crystal clear waters and wonderful white and pink sand. When the wind picks up and sea waves begin to come in one after the other, this is the best time for windsurfing lovers to arrive. Indeed an absolute adrenalin rush, not only for those who take part in the sport but also for those who delight in watching windsurfers “play” with the waves created by nature. The beach of Falassarna extends over a very large area (about 3 kilometres from one end to the other)
Amygdalokefali village is located in the southwest Crete in the region of Chania at an altitude of 460 meters above sea level. The village is built 26 km from Kissamos and 68 km from Chania.
The few residents of the village – who are less than 20 – are occupied in agriculture, animal husbandry, fishing and beekeeping. If you ever find yourself at Amigdalokefali do not forget to travel from the village to the beach, where there is a fishing shelter.
There are two hiking paths that you can follow to navigate in the region. Thefirst –which is 4 km long- starts from Amigdalokefali and reaches Kefali and the second –which is 6km long- starts from Amigdalokefali and reaches Keramoti and Kambos.
