ABOUT
Ligres is situated 51 kilometres to the south of Rethymno, just below the village of Agia Paraskevi, nestled at the base of Mt Siderotas.
Ligres is a lengthy beach with coarse sand and deep waters. While it may not be very well-equipped with facilities, it does offer a taverna and accommodation in the form of guest rooms for visitors.
At the very point where the beach comes to an end, you'll find a waterfall that flows consistently throughout the year, leaving a lasting impression on every visitor.
Don't miss the chance to take a stroll and admire the fantastic geological formations in the Xiromilia area, located a bit further from the beach.

The Enchanting Allure of Triopetra Beach
Triopetra: among Crete's most renowned beaches. Especially cherished and frequented is Triopetra—an expanse of soft sand framed by clear, azure waters. Named for its three prominent rocks (Triopetra = Three Rocks), the beach lacks amenities, inviting you to linger until sunset, revelling in breath-taking vistas. Shade is scarce, save for the shelter of a nearby cave. A truly exceptional coastline, offering crystalline waters in line with the island's overall allure.
Access proves effortless, courtesy of a direct road to the beach, and in close proximity, you'll discover tavernas and lodging options.
