Morning Quad Tour to Boufos Beach from Malia with Swimming

About the Activity

What to Expect

Setting off on our quad safari tour, we explore the dynamic landscape of Crete, navigating through the lush countryside adorned with olive groves and vineyards. Starting off, we climb on an off-road terrain between olive groves, immersing ourselves in this green place full of colours. Our journey leads us on an impressive off-road route between the vineyards, offering a chance to explore the Cretan nature that promises to amaze you.

Our first stop is at the Monastery of Panagia Vilgiotisa, where we relax in the serene forest surroundings. We then head to a local olive mill for a fascinating tour to learn about the production of olive oil, followed by a small taste test. Continuing through dirt roads, we encounter impressive mountains and wild nature, rich in flora and fauna, where we can pick some local herbs and enjoy the unique views. This stop offers ample time for photos and connecting with nature.

The adventure continues as we head to Boufos Beach in Sisi for a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear waters. This beach stop is perfect for a dip and relaxation. After our swim, we savour a delicious lunch in a traditional tavern, leisurely enjoying the authentic Cretan cuisine. As we wrap up our tour, we navigate an exciting, dusty-sandy off-road coastal route and pass through the narrow streets of the traditional village of Sisi. By the end of this incredible quad trip, you'll have experienced the authentic Cretan life, leaving you with memories that will last a lifetime.
