Lake Kournas
Your trip will continue with a visit to Lake Kournas, a peaceful and picturesque freshwater oasis that should not be missed. Located near the town of Georgioupoli, this lake is the only natural freshwater lake in Crete, making it a unique and special destination. According to the myth and the folk narrations, the nymph of the water was once the daughter of a villager who sat down with her father on the spot where the lake is today. Her father, bewitched by her beauty, was tempted and approached her with wicked intentions. The girl, terrified, cried out “Sink, Lake, sink, and I a spirit in the lake!” The spirits of the lake heard her cry, took pity on her, and made her wish come true. The ground shook and sank with a terrible noise, leaving a lake where the valley had been, and the unfortunate maiden took refuge in its dark waters.
