The resorts of Bali, Plakias, Ayia Galini, Stavromenos and Petres are in the Rethymnos prefecture. This area, in the island of Crete, is blessed with great beaches.

Further inland is the dramatic Kourtaliotiko gorge. A river flows through this great cleft in the land. High up in the lonely mountains sits the Preveli monastery, a fine 17th century structure.
