Preveli Beach and Plakias
Explore the Stunning Beaches of Crete’s South Coast
Embark on a guided day trip to Plakias and Preveli Beach, where you’ll discover some of the most beautiful beaches on the south coast of Crete. Travel through the breathtaking Kourtaliotis Gorge, stopping to marvel at its waterfalls and the springs of the Preveli River, which flow through the gorge and meet the sea at Preveli Beach.
Your first stop is at the sandy Damnoni Beach, where a boat awaits to take you to the iconic Palm Beach Preveli, located at the southern end of Kourtaliotis Gorge. Swim in the crystal-clear waters of the Libyan Sea, relax under the warm sun, or take a short hike through the tropical palm forest.
Pause at a scenic viewpoint above Palm Beach Preveli for stunning panoramic views and fantastic photo opportunities. After your visit, the boat will take you back to Damnoni Beach.
The adventure continues with a stop at the charming resort town of Plakias, nestled in a natural bay. Here, you can enjoy a leisurely lunch, shop, or take another swim. Conclude your day with a scenic drive back to Rethymno via the dramatic Kotsifou Gorge.
