PREVELI (Famous Beach) RETHYMNO
Preveli Beach is a sandy cove at the end of Kourtaliotiko Gorge. The
area resembles a tropical lagoon with its palms, oleanders, waterfalls and stream
which flows into the sea. There are two ways to reach the beach on foot: a rugged
path marked with arrows along the edge of the cliff to the sea requires sturdy
shoes and agility; the other way down follows the track across the river at the
arched bridge leading to a taverna and, again, a rugged path to the beach. The
easiest way to reach the area is by boat.
