The rustling of leaves off the fragile branches of the small twisted junipers echoes through the maze of dense vegetation in the summer haze as you pick your way through. Shafts of sunlight filter through the fingerlike projections of the cedars high above. These trees and their inhabitants are what give the bay area its distinctive name of Kedrodasos Beach, or Forest of Cedars.

As one of the last isolated and completely untouched protected areas, the natural beauty of Kedrodasos has been preserved since the start of time. Take this chance to enjoy the sharp scent of cedar easing your senses as you camp at the various spots indicated around the island. While coves line the path between Kedrodasos and the famous Elafonissi Beach, the true wonder of Kedrodasos is in the depths of twilight as the stars come out to play. Untouched by light pollution, the pinpricks of light glistening through the velvet night sky become all the brighter. If ever there was an embodiment of the true beauty of nature, it must have been Kedrodasos.
