Preveli Palm Beach

~ Escape the noise of the city and explore the natural beauty of one of the most special locations on the island of Crete . ~

The area of Preveli is located about 35km south of Rethimno city and protected as natura since 2000.

The Palm Beach of Preveli, known as Lake of Preveli is located at the exit of Mega River, which carries the waters of the imposing Kourtaliotiko gorge.

Before we go to the beach, we make a short stop for photos of the magnificent springs, a unique nature because of its landscape.

The combination of the huge vertical cliffs of the gorge, the river with its green water, the unique palm tree forest creates a magical atmosphere. It is the most romantic beach of Crete.

An almost 15'-20' minute walk, will give us the unforgettable opportunity to swim in the crystal clear waters of the Libyan sea, next to the tropical river, enjoy the sun and stroll through the exotic palm tree forest.
