Great farm. The owner was super nice and gave our group an interesting tour on historical and modern olive oil production. We had a small oil tasting. The product is of exceptional quality and very reasonably priced. A must stop when traveling the area.

Clear blue waters!!! Organised beach but laying uden the trees (almirikia) is highly proposed!!! Choose to spend the whole day there (trust me it is worth it)
6. Kourtaliotiko Gorge
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 310 reviews
A long and pleasant walk along the gorge through breathtaking scenery, past waterfalls, fountains, deserted chapels and monasteries, to an authentic palm beach at Preveli. You can even catch a glimpse of a lammergeier if you are lucky. Watch out though for slips and trips - stout shoes essential.
7. Biotopoi Nature Park
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 166 reviews
The Park has the concept of a rich biodiversity ecosystem of Crete. The visitors are guided though the rich wild vegetation of the park with the plants of Cretan traditional cookery, the aromatic medical herbs, the beautiful wild flowers from Crete and a lot of animals that live in this ecosystem. Crete with 10% endemic species gave a reasonable target to create this non profit park, to show the exotic flora and fauna of our island.

10. Ammoudi Beach

Reviewed By MorgannP2
Micro Ammoudi is an awesome beach although textiles are dominating by 90% or more. I think the locals don’t like the nude foreigners as I heard one local complain to a nudist claiming it wasn’t a nude beach. If it’s not a nude beach then why don’t they make it such, they can afford a sign no? And they don’t seem to mind the money the tourist bring in. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. We can always go to Spain if they have a problem with nudity.
