Itinerary description

Starts from beautiful Prevali beach (my favorite Cretan beach) at the famous Palm Forest. Goes upstream a little further. Last half mile discourages typical beach folks with some big rocks, but can be easily done with river shoes.

Refreshing. The trail supposedly continues but looks tough. Turned back.
