Unspoilt beaches, echoes of ancient legends and picturesque villages perched on cliffs... If you want to be amazed on your summer holiday, visit the enchanting Anafi, the hidden pearl of the Cyclades Islands!
You can reach it at the end of a holiday on another legendary island, the sunny and welcoming Crete. As the largest island in Greece, you won't have a dull moment in Crete, with beautiful beaches, tavernas offering great food and nightclubs where there is always a party to attend! The starting port is also the island's capital, the ancient city of Heraklion. Surrounded by ancient Venetian walls, the city offers all amenities and services, but also picturesque sights such as colourful open-air markets and historical monuments that reveal its thousand-year history.
🚢 The two ports are connected by the Greek ferry company Anek Lines. The route is operated once a week, on Sundays, and you can reach Anafi in 4 hours and 20 minutes. In the summertime many tourists decide to visit the Greek islands, and the Heraklion Anafi route is very busy, so booking is recommended. On MrFerry you can compare fares and availability and find the best solution for your holiday!
⚓In just over 4 hours you will arrive in Agios Nikolaos, the only port on the small island of Anafi. In the harbour area you will find many bars and restaurants with panoramic view of the sea, where you can take a refreshing break before heading into the village and losing yourself in its narrow streets and typical whitewashed houses.
⛱️ Near the harbour you will find Klisidi beach, a long stretch of golden sand bathed by the emerald sea. On the other side of the island is Livskopos beach, a cove to be reached on foot or by boat, preferably in the morning when the light is at its brightest, to appreciate the extraordinary blue of the water.
