Situated 58 kilometers far from Rethymnon, at the Southeast, some 13 kilometers from the main road leading to Agia Galini at the South (some 19 kilometers from the village Akoumia), the beach Agios Pavlos is a long sandy beach affected by the southern winds. The beach is ideal for snorkeling.

Well enough organised, it offers accommodation facilities, cafes and taverns with excellent dishes and fresh seafood. There are also facilities for swimming and sunbathing (sunbeds, umbrellas) and sea sports. The beach is so beautiful that it is worth spending a few days there.

Access from Rethymnon is possible by rented or private car and motorbike. You will take the road to Agia Galini, turn right after the village Nea Krya Vryssi (after circa 45 kilometers from Rethymnon) and drive for another 14 kilometers.

Situated 58 kilometers far from Rethymnon, at the Southeast, some 13 kilometers from the main road leading to Aghia Galini at the South, the beach at the west of Aghios Pavlos is a beautiful long sandy beach affected by the southern winds. The beach is rather isolated, with few people and tolerant to nudism.

No accommodation and food and drink facilities are available; only a few umbrellas for shade are offered to the few people who choose this remote beach for swimming and relaxation.
