Kedrodasos


Kedrodasos is a few hundred metres west of Elafonissi beach in west Crete and 77km far from Chania City, one of the most beautiful beaches. A hidden paradise for many years since only few knew how to actually get there. A fantastic place to camp and enjoy some serenity away from the thousands of tourists who invade nearby Elafonissi. 

The beach has sand and rocks and a beautiful cedar forest. Bear in mind that there are no facilities for accommodation or food.

Kedrodasos Or “Cedars Grove” in English. The real issue is how long will the name apply to the area since cedars grow only a centimeter per year, and certain humans (?) cut roots and branches of the trees for their campfires. (On Press: catastrophe struck earlier than we thought since a criminal opened a road with a bulldozer destroying the idyllic scenery in order to establish a beach bar!)

The secret treasure that lies a few kilometers southeast from Elafonissi, “Kedrodasos”, (cedar forest) is one of the few coastal forests in Greece. Kedrodasos forest is located in west Crete, Chania Prefecture and 78 km far from Chania City.

Kedrodasos is located very close to Elafonissi island - beach and the road which leads to that magical place is a dirt road, perpendicular to the main road. Following the dirt road, we stop at a small square and from there and as we walk along a path, after a few seconds, we see a beach of amazing beauty.

The cedars reach the beach and they are the only tenants. There you will find neither sun beds as at Elafonissi nor canteens, so you should obtain the necessary things. Away from the noise of an organized beach, Kedrodasos offers the perfect setting for an alternative escape. The region, however, demands attention and respect. Please, do not throw any garbage in this little paradise, and certainly do not cut even a small sprig of a cedar tree as it grows just one centimetre in a year!

The picture is unique as the beauty and tranquillity of the place continues to surprise the senses even when the moon has taken the position of the sun.
