Elounda, which is equipped with 35 cannons, was one of the only Cretan cities to resist the Turkish invaders when they took over Crete in 1669. However, the Turks managed to take command of the city in the early 18\u1d49 century and were driven out only 200 years later. The famous fortress that protected the village harbour at that time was transformed into a leper colony from 1903 to 1962: the famous Spinalonga. You can now walk through the ghost village to admire the remains of history. As a little anecdote, it was this village that inspired Dennis Lehane to write his book Shutter Island, later adapted into a film by Martin Scorsese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Weather_Elounda_when_to_go\"><\/span>Weather Elounda: when to go?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Crete, the weather is generally mild throughout the year.
