Kamini is a picturesque location in northern Crete, and is home to a number of important archaeological sites and five beautiful pebble beaches. The area is known for its distinctive limestone conglomerates and dark red soil, as well as its geological formations, sea caves, and rock bridges. Despite its natural beauty, the area has been affected by the north winds that carry garbage from the Aegean Sea. However, when south winds blow, the waters become a stunning turquoise with remarkable clarity. Gournia, an ancient Minoan settlement, is nearby, and its necropolis can also be found in the area. Kamini is an ideal destination for those looking for an off-the-beaten-track experience in Crete, and offers an array of unique sights and activities.
