Great local tastes at this tiny tavern in the mountains between Falassarna and Elafonisi. A recent opening, mother cooking and son serving food from an open kitchen, in a taverna with rough-hewn stone walls. The food all from mountain products of the region: local meat, local dairy, local vegetables. Do try the wild greens and the Kalisounia pies, And the best Dakos you'll have in Crete. Simple, inexpensive menu. May the son play his lute for you, finally!

Kedrodasos beach (Cedar forest) is another amazing beach in Crete. It is located 1km west of the famous lagoon of Elafonisi. The beach is filled with juniper trees, like cedars and dunes, reminiscent of the tropical beaches of Lebanon. The small cedars on the beach belong to the species of “Juniperus oxycedrus” and “Juniperus phoenicea”. If you find yourself on the beach, you should remember that trees are very fragile and require your respect, so be sure not to approach.
The beach is protected from the winds which usually blow in the neighboring Elafonisi beach. The European path E4 crosses Kedrodasos (there are yellow and black signs everywhere).
