Sydlige Kreta - Matala, Red Beach og huler
Beskrivelse
Efter en kort køretur gennem Messara sletten kommer du til Matala. Kendt for hippiskolonien i 1960'erne, hvor de boede i store huller dannet på bjerget. Stenene er huller med en romersk begravelse. I Matala vil du have tid til et forfriskende dyk i vandet, spise noget eller bare nyde en drink på stranden. Dette er stedet, hvor Zeus, efter at have taget formen en tyr, svømmede til land med Europa på ryggen, før han dragede hende af til Gortys. Både minoerne og romerne brugte stedet som deres havn. Men for de fleste mennesker betyder Matala kun én ting: hippies. I slutningen af 1960'erne - 1970'erne var denne lille by en koloni af "blomsterbørn", der boede i huler, der engang var romerske grave. Hver sommer fejrer tusindvis af mennesker Matala Beach Festival. Se mulighederne for Matala Beach Festival. Vær der for at dele kærligheden! ❤️

Unusual place after more than 40 minutes of walking-sports. Small cozy beach where you can treat yourself to a moisturizing drink while enjoying sunbathing.
Lovely place once we got there but spent 5hrs total on a bus for 3 and half hours of visit. Couldn't go in the sea as wasn't enough time. Would definitely reccomend a visit but unless u like very long bus journeys. Find a different route or tour!! We will definitely not use again!!
Dear guest, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your time in Matala, even though the long transfer affected your overall experience. Crete is a very large island, and transfer times depend on the pickup location. For guests staying in Malia, the drive to the south can take up to 2.5 hours. A total of 3.5 hours on the bus is not possible with our schedule, as our first entry to Matala is at 8:30 and guests arrive around 11:00. We understand that long distances may feel tiring, but they are unfortunately part of travelling across the island. We always do our best to make the journey as smooth as possible. Thank you again for your comments, and we hope you enjoyed discovering this beautiful part of Crete. Kind regards, Tourline Team
The trip to Matala was very nice. It went from the north of Crete to the south. The ride goes through the mountains where you could enjoy really beautiful views. Matala is known for its caves where hippies lived in the 60s. Before entering the village, there is an olive tree with faces carved into its trunk. Matala itself consists of taverns, souvenir shops and textile-supplying shops. There is also a beach there, which is very gravelly and studded with stones in the water. The water gets deep very quickly and when you go in and out you sing deep into the gravel. It doesn't take much time to see the place. For us it was very nice and we can recommend this trip.
Liebe Gäste, vielen Dank für Ihre schöne Rückmeldung. Es freut uns sehr, dass Ihnen der Ausflug nach Matala gefallen hat und Sie die Fahrt durch die Bergwelt sowie den besonderen Charakter des Ortes genießen konnten. Matala ist wirklich einzigartig mit seinen Höhlen, der Hippie‑Geschichte und dem lebendigen Dorfkern. Wir danken Ihnen herzlich für Ihre Empfehlung und freuen uns, dass Sie einen schönen Tag auf Kreta hatten. Vielleicht dürfen wir Sie bei einem weiteren Ausflug wieder begrüßen. Herzliche Grüße, Tourline Team
Nice beach,super drinks,but better than bus tour too long with car rental. Cool people, at the bars, very chill.
Liebe Gäste, vielen Dank für Ihre tolle Rückmeldung. Es freut uns sehr, dass Ihnen der Strand und die entspannte Atmosphäre so gut gefallen haben. Die Drinks und das chillige Ambiente machen den Tag dort wirklich besonders. Als Bustour ist die Strecke etwas länger, aber wir freuen uns, dass Sie den Ausflug trotzdem genießen konnten. Vielen Dank für die 5 Sterne und Ihre Empfehlung. Herzliche Grüße, Tourline Team
Thank you for the amazing tour! Very positive experience with plenty of free time in Matala. Everything was fast, on time and very well organized. Bravo to our nice multilingual guides and professional driver.
Due to an error, we were left behind by the bus, but we were brought by car to Matala to compensate for it. We appreciate and thank our guide for her kindness, so we could enjoy the time spent in Matala ( a nice place with a beautiful beach).
Our tour guide, Viola was wonderful. She shared her knowledge of the area and made us feel special. The trip was certainly a highlight of our visit to Crete. The weather was perfect. We enjoyed the beach and the town.
We booked the tour (if you can call it that) in Italian from Italy. Specially chose this one because it was in Italian. We were contacted two days before by email during the night, which was not possible in Italian... On your site there was the possibility to choose the most convenient place to be picked up, and even in this case, the operator forced us to go to another meeting point much further away. Two words in broken English. So also not very understandable, even if the guide was nice. The place is very nice, but it's better to organize on your own, it will cost less and you will certainly have more satisfaction
Loved exploring the caves! The shops were nice and had reasonably priced items. The food spots were so good and the beach was very pretty. It was a perfect amount of time to do everything we wanted there.
Small nice place (nothing to have with the big cities), we went in the evening and it was cool, small square with bars, small alleys with artistic frescoes drawn on the floor. On the side of the small beach small caves carved into the rock. You can also find one of the restaurants overlooking the sea it is very nice. Place where the cool bobo community meets. Nice place to discover if you spend the evening in the area.
