The cave forms a single large chamber whose figure is almost circular, with a diameter of 50 m, a height that reaches 20 m in places and an entrance opening of 20 m, according to Incredible Crete, the Region of Crete’s official tourism portal. CretanBeaches reports an entrance width of 25 m and two chambers on different levels, and MeetCrete describes a 20 m ceiling and a 70 m diameter – so treat the figures as a range rather than a single survey. The chapel of Agia Sofia itself measures 6 x 3 m and stands at the left edge of the entrance, per Incredible Crete.
