Glaria Island (Glaronisi, in Greek), means “the seagulls’ island”.
The uninhabited Glaria islet in the Mirabello Bay‘s crown, emerges from azure waters like a sleeping giant.
Its rugged coastline, dotted with hidden coves and dramatic cliffs, creates a striking silhouette against the Cretan sky.
From the sea, during your boat trip with our Felicia boat. you will find yourself in front of the untouched beauty of this natural spot: you will find only birds and wild nature here.
Glaria Island sits facing the bay of Agios Fokas. It is a small islet but it has presence: wild, no facilities, no dock, no beach bar.
It is also known locally for the Barbarossa‘s cave: one of those places with a story (or legend?) about treasure and an old corsair. We arrive close enough to see the cave entrance and take the photo with it behind you.
The beach in Glaria Island is tiny. The water in front of it is that blue-green that looks edited in photos but isn’t: clear to the bottom, the colour of places that you don’t forget.
The islet is a refuge for seabirds, in particular seagulls, and it is left to them.
