Elafonissos: Kalogeras Elafonissos

Kalogeras Beach Elafonissos: The beach of Kalogeras is placed on the north-west side of Elafonissos and has a relation to the past of the island, dating back to its origins. Elafonissos was once known as "Onou Gnathos", and according to the geographer Pausanias, its capital was placed in an area that we know now as the small islet of Petri, or Pavlopetri. This island used to be part of Elafonissos until the first century AD, when the separation of the land occurred. That is why the beach still hosts some interesting archaeological remains of this ancient city.

Today, this beach is mainly known as an extension of Kontogoni beach. It is a very long coast that keeps its picturesque feature, as it has many cedar trees and some nice sand dunes. The beach also has a football ground, in case you like sports. Kalogeras beach has an easy access from Elafonissos village, so this makes it close to the tourist amenities.
