Loutro, accessible only by boat or on foot

A coastal view featuring a deep blue sea, rugged mountain landscape, and a small cluster of white buildings nestled near the shoreline under a clear, blue sky with scattered clouds.

The charming white village of Loutro, in Crete, is isolated at the foot of the mountains around a small cove.

Accessible only by boat or on foot, its white houses contrast with the breathtaking scenery.

Loutro is well known to hikers because it is one of the stops on the way back from Agia Roumeli, the finish point of the famous Samaria Gorge hike, to the port of Chora Sfakion, to rejoin the road network.
