| Beaches in Palekastro |

2km after Skopi, just before the monastery, two neighboring small pebbly beaches are shaped with crystal clear waters. The first, known as Platani, hosts a small picturesque tavern, while the second, known as Agioi Pantes is totally secluded.
The beaches are formed at the exit of two lush canyons, running parallel to each other. One of them is the Agii Pandes Gorge. Indeed, near the coast there are many plane trees, which give their name to the region (Platani means plane tree). The area is totally undeveloped and is ideal for seclusion and quiet swimming. Finally, the area west of the Cape Trahilos, called Papadiokambos, is considered an ideal spot for windsurfing.
