Feel free to rappel down the steep canyon wall next to the waterfall and try adrenaline jumps in the water as many times as you wish. Our specialized instructors and guides will be next to you at all times to ensure your safety and guide you through the different activities. Hiking towards the south, we discover a small cave called “the fairy cave” – if you are lucky enough, you may see one hiding behind the stalactites and stalagmites! We will hike for about half an hour more to find the best spot for our next stop. After a 15 min. drive we arrive above the most famous destination of the south coast of Rethymno. Admire Kourtaliotis' mouth, flowing through a dense palm forest and into the crystal clear waters of the Libyan sea! We walk down about 500 stone steps to get to the beach where you have free time to swim, relax and maybe walk around between the palm trees. In the afternoon we walk back up the steps to access our vehicles.

What an amazing waterfall and an amazing location! In the center of Crete island, in a big gorge, we went there and dive in a waterfall, walked along the river, and used the special equipment to go down to the heart of the gorge! I totally recomend it to you! The water was really cold, but we had some special suits, and it wasnt so bad

We (dad and two teens) took a shot at canyoning in Crete without knowing what to expect. From the scenery within the gorge /canyon, to the extremely helpful and fun crew, we all returned from the tour with great stories (and great pics from the team photographer). Our advice - book this!
Excellent adventure

Excellent day. Well planned and felt extremely safe throughout. The abseiling instructors were very helpful and supportive for first time canyoners. Loved the experience, 10/10 would recommend!
