Gaidouronisi: The magic of simplicity





The Gaidouronisi (Donkey island) or "Chrissi" is one of the most beautiful uninhabited islands around the Crete, about 8 nautical miles south of Ierapetra on the Libyan Sea. Chrissi is almost level and its main characteristic is  the plethora of shells lying on the northern beach named "Belegrina", along with many golden beaches, crystal clear turquoise waters and the famous cedar forest, which covers an area of ​​350 acres with an average of 14 trees per acre, aged 200 years!
The entire island has a maximum length of 5 km and a maximum width of 1 km.  The highest part is the "Kefala" hill  with an altitude of 31 meters. It takes about one hour trip  from the port of Ierapetra to reach there, where turquoise waters, beautiful beaches, magical sunsets and a unique ecosystem are waiting to amaze you and steal your heart. However, bear in mind that you are not allowed to pollute, collect shells and rocks, move outside the restricted pathways and camping.
