I was aware that this was a beautiful place but from reading many reviews and tour books I'd expected this place to be full of people and sunbeds etc.I couldn't believe it that around midday on 9th May when we arrive the were about 12 people there!!!By the time we left there were maybe 40 people across the whole area....

Preveli is a great place BUT I'm not talking about the beach! Beach is good (nothing more) and very crowded.

But the road to the area is challenging and the climbing... More

We asked the clerk at the hotel where he was going with his family during the summer and he recommended this coast, said it was also a nice little trip. Beach is amazing: a connection between freshwater river and the Mediterranean,... More
