Preveli beach tour
Preveli
reminds of an exotic lagoon. Preveli beach and lagoon, sometimes known locally
as “Palm Beach”, is located below the monastery which is our first
stop. The Patriarchal Preveli Monastery of St. John the Theologian, known as
the Monastery of Preveli, comprises two main building complexes, the ruined
Lower Monastery of St. John the Baptist, and the currently operational Upper
(Rear) Monastery of St. John the Theologian. Behind the beach is an extensive
glade of palm trees. The beach is approachable by boats from the nearby resort
of Plakias. It is an oasis of palm trees with crystalline greenish waters and
fine soft sand. The Kourtaliotis River ends at this wonderful beach, creating a
delta. Apart from the superb palm trees, lush vegetation surrounds the beach
and the river, creating a dreamy landscape. Afterwards we will visit the city
of Rethimnon where you have plenty of time to enjoy a traditionaly prepared
meal or enjoy a cold glass of coffee.
