EXPERIENCE

Our day begins with a road trip through the scenic Rethymno region. We’ll first stop at Kourtaliotiko Gorge, renowned for its towering cliffs and deep ravines formed over millions of years. These majestic cliffs, home to a variety of flora and fauna, offer breathtaking views and are popular for rock climbing and other outdoor activities. The gorge’s narrow passages, often shaded by tall trees, create a sense of mystery and adventure, housing diverse wildlife.

We will continue to our next destination: Preveli Beach. This iconic beach is famous for its exotic palm forest, which surrounds a river flowing from a gorge into the sea. In the 60s and 70s, the beach’s natural beauty attracted hippies from around the world, who lived in huts under the palm trees.

Today, Preveli Beach is a protected area under the Natura 2000 network, ensuring its pristine condition with no human intervention. There are no facilities, showers, or sunbeds, preserving its untouched charm. At Preveli Beach, you can soak up the sun, swim in crystal-clear waters, and explore the enchanting palm forest, making it a perfect destination for nature lovers and those seeking a tranquil escape.
