Near the Minoan ruins at Akrotri, Red Beach is a crescent of volcanic sand and pebbles set against black cliffs. Its blood-red sand and collapsing burnt-umber cliffs give Red Beach its name. In the tranquil sea, rocks tossed up by ancient volcanic activity lurk just offshore. For snorkelers and open-topped wooden vessels, crystal-clear seas are heaven.
