Ammoundi Beach, Finikas, Insel Kreta, Griechenland
#beach
Beautiful Preveli Beach is located at the edge of Kourtaliotikos Gorge near Plakias at the South Coast of Crete, Greece. We walked down the steep path from Preveli Monastery (which is also worth a visit ⛪️) with this magnificent view 🌴 The other way to reach the beach is by boat. You can walk into the palm grove on both sides of the river.

The access to Preveli Beach is best from the west (near Preveli Monastery), where you can hike down to the beach. The obvious shot I guess, is this rock in the shape of a heart. 
There are a lot of possibilities for composition, the high tides in these day forced me to shoot straight from an upper position.

6.8/10 (155 reviews)
Staff was great we enjoyed the food I think the main draw back was it’s a very popular spot on hot days and there isn’t designated parking for people staying at the resort, so sometimes when we would come back it was really hard to find a parking spot
