| Rethymno: Agia Fotini Beach |
| Articles general |
|
A short walk to the east brings you to the long sandy beach of Triopetra, or three rocks, while to the west you can reach the palm beach (Preveli beach) and ancient Preveli Monastery within a couple of hours on foot – or less than 20 minutes by car If you hire a car you can visit the famous springs of Spili, just 30 minutes away, the fishing harbour Aghia Galini and the little known but impressive gorge of Patsos or Agios Antonios. The Minoan sites of Faistos or Phestos and its recently discovered port at Komos, and the Roman city of Gortys are also within easy reach. A short drive away, the Amari valley is a wonderful place to visit in the heat of the summer, where the traditional mountain villages with their plane trees, cool springs and kafenions are untouched by tourism In spring the whole area is rich in wild flowers and there are marvellous walks in the mountains and through traditional villages.
