Στην περιοχή Δρέπανο του Ακρωτηρίου στο νομό Χανίων και έξω από τον κόλπο της Σούδας, βρίσκεται το υποθαλάσσιο σπήλαιο των Ελεφάντων. Το σπήλαιο ανακαλύφθηκε μόλις το 1999 από ένα ψαροτουφεκά. Αμέσως, η Εφορεία Παλαιοανθρωπολογίας και Σπηλαιολογίας, οργάνωσε την πρώτη αποστολή εξερεύνησης του σπηλαίου στις 31 Μαρτίου 2000. Τα ευρήματα ήταν φανταστικά, καθώς εκτός από την εκπληκτική ομορφιά του σπηλαίου, βρέθηκαν σε αυτό οστά ελεφάντων.
