Mononaftis beach Crete
Hi everybody, in front of us the Mononaftis beach in Crete, Greece.
Where is it exactly? How is the beach? What activities can you do here?
Where is Mononaftis beach?
Mononaftis beach is a pearl among the beaches of Agia Pelagia. Agia Pelagia is often chosen for its location not too far from Heraklion, its comforts, and the transparent sea waters.
How is Mononaftis beach Agia Pelagia?
Mononaftis beach, in particular, is a small world where activities and people repeat themselves daily in a pleasant routine: after some time, you get familiar with it and feel almost at home.
The only negative thing about this beach is that the descent into the water is a little bit difficult due to the pebble beach and the dangerously slippery rocks in the water.
However, this problem is easily overcome by using water shoes and a bit of experience. In fact, there are some points where it is easier to enter the sea: once these “special corridors” have been discovered, everything is easier.
If you haven’t brought your shoes to use in the water from home, it’s not a problem: on the beach, you will find some shops where you can buy what you need.
Mononaftis beach hotel
Mononaftis beach is a “small world”, but easily accessible as you can arrive by car directly near the beach. In addition, the beach of Mononaftis is surrounded by different types of resorts.
The two main resorts that are directly on the sea on the Mononaftis beach are the Sea Side Resort and the Peninsula Resort & Spa. These are two beautiful resorts: the Sea Side Resort is more for couples or adults, the Peninsula Resort & Spa is also for families.
Mononaftis umbrella beach and deckchairs rental cost
Here at Mononaftis beach, there are several paid services that you can use. First of all, we mention the rental of deck chairs and umbrellas. The rental cost in 2022 was 10 euros for the two comfortable gray sunbeds and one umbrella, but the older sets such as the 2 older blue sunbeds and one umbrella in the first line were paid 7 euros.
As is the custom here in Crete, you just need to place yourself on the chosen deckchairs, and around 11 am, the attendant comes to request the payment. It is possible to pay with cash, credit card, or smartphone.
Things to do in Agia Pelagia at the Mononaftis beach
You can also rent a boat, a paddle boat, or a jet ski.
Mononaftis beach jet ski rental
About the jet ski, we have to say that you can’t do a tour and go wherever you want, but simply try it in a circuit. So it’s good for those who want a little bit of fun but not for those who prefer adventure or to explore the area. The use you can do of the jet ski is limited.
Mononaftis beach diving
Another activity you can try here is to go underwater as a sub. An instructor will teach you the basic things, and you’ll try to stay all together underwater in an area not too far from the beach and not too deep. It can be a good experience for your family or those who haven’t ever tried it.
Mononaftis beach snorkeling
Anyway, you can also have fun in the water without being a sub with snorkeling. Let’s go to find and admire some fish and discover about the life under the water’s surface.
Besides the clear water, one of the best features of Mononaftis beach is what lies beneath the sea’s surface: here, it is very nice and fun to snorkel. In fact, here in the waters of Mononaftis, you will find different varieties of fish.
Mononaftis beach shower
If you want, you can also shower when you exit from the water and return to the beach.
After all these experiences, it’s time to greet you. Bye, and see you in the next video!
