Overview

Joining this trip will guarantee you the sight of a true piece of paradise. The natural lagoon is a perfect place to shoot pictures in beautiful nature. Snorkeling to and around the waterfall is an exciting activity. The walk covers area with rare flora and fauna. It's safe and fun for the entire family and everyone can participate at their own level. This well-guided trip by our professionals is a combination of walking, easy climbing, swimming, and snorkeling. Along the way you see incredible things and you might even spot some aquatic life that lives down here. You will also have a chance to "touch the waterfall" and even swim behind it. The delicious Cretan lunch in our olive garden afterwards is the perfect way to relax and relive the trip while watching the professional pictures taken by your guide.

What To Expect

Join us for a unique experience to snorkel towards an all-year-round massive waterfall. Drinking water bursts out of the wall making this an incredible place to visit. In this experience we organize transport to the location, and we have a short hike (going down approximately 300 steps) to the water stream where it's time to get wet. In the wetsuits we follow the stream upwards for about 80 meters until a beautiful, and we mean, BEAUTIFUL natural lagoon. From here we take the snorkels and swim about 90 meters further into the gorge and reach the big waterfall. After the refreshing swim and a fruit snack we then hike back up (a different route of approximately 100 steps). Back at Dive2gether you are offered a Cretan lunch in our olive garden.
