TouristLine Crete
Cross from Ierapetra to Chrissi Island for golden sand, a cedar forest and shallow turquoise water on a full beach day with TouristLine hotel pickup from selected resort areas.

Chrissi is a small protected island south of Ierapetra, famous for its golden-beige sand, ancient cedar trees and shallow turquoise water. There are no buildings on the island — only a beach, a path through the cedar forest and one small canteen.
The boat departs from Ierapetra and crosses the Libyan Sea. On the island you have several hours to swim, walk between Belegrina and Hatzivolakas beaches, and explore the cedar forest before the boat returns.
Hotel pickup from Hersonissos, Malia, Stalis, Anissaras, Analipsi, Gouves and the Heraklion area. Bring water, sun protection, a hat and reef-safe sunscreen — Chrissi is a protected natural area.
