Spinalonga Fortress is located on a small island in Crete, Greece, and is a military fortification with a long history and unique charm. It was built in the 16th century by the Venetians to defend against attacks from the Ottoman Empire. Its superior geographical location made it an important stronghold for defending the eastern coast of Crete. The surrounding walls are tall and sturdy, presenting a typical Venetian military architectural style. The interior once housed a series of military facilities, including turrets, barracks, and churches. This historical background adds more cultural and historical depth to Spinalonga, making it an important site for studying history and the evolution of human society. When exploring this ancient structure, visitors can not only feel the magnificence of the architecture and the wisdom of its defense, but also learn about the island's rich history and its profound impact on Crete.Agios Nikolaos · 22.3 km from Kavousi

A stunning place, an insanely beautiful sea, the colors of the Mediterranean are astonishing with a million shades of blue. The island is surrounded by a wall, with ruins and remains of a fortress, dating back to Byzantine times. The view is stunning.
