Head north through the local mountains to the cave at Milatos, passing through some stunning scenery and traditional Cretan villages.
On arrival at Milatos, follow the path carved in the rock to the entrance of the cave. Listen to a macabre story associated with the cave, about the slaughter of around 1500 local villagers by the brutal Turk invaders, and the remains of some of the murdered that are now kept in a small ossuary next to the chapel built-in memory at the entrance to the cave. The full story will be explained to you on-site. Then, travel northeast to the wind farm high above the village of Plaka where you can take in some spectacular views of Mirabello Bay and Spinalonga Island. Go off-road down the side of the mountain adjacent to Spinalonga to join the speedboat for your exciting ride to the former Leper colony. Only officials are permitted to guide on Spinalonga, however, your driver will give you plenty of info and guidance before you enter. Please bear in mind the speedboat will return to pick you up after 1 hour.
