Elafonissos is a very small island, just 19 square Km, on the Southern Eastern Tip of Peloponesse. The distance from the mainland is a mere 570 meters of crystal clear water on top of thin white sand.
Elafonissos has several sandy beaches suitable for swimming. The most famous of all is the twin beach of Simos-Saracenico on the south eastern tip of the island. There is also a beach with pebbles whose existance even the locals forget, as it is hidden with no road access Aglyfti on the south west of the Island.
