Triopetra Beach

Triopetra Beach - Τριόπετρα - is a beautiful seaside, uncluttered, natural place, located on the southern coast in the prefecture of Rethymnon. If you are looking for quiet and peaceful surroundings, as well as a family friendly beach, this will suit you. There are shallow, safe and protected waters here for all ages, as well as wave beaches.

This beach has very little in the way of buildings or development or organisation. It is still a place where you can totally relax in nature away from the hustle bustle of life. Here there is quiet, there are azure clear waters and monumental mountains rolling into the sea. From here you can see the Paximadia islands, you can swim, snorkel and laze on the beach.

At the eastern end of the beach are three unusual rock formations, three big rocks sitting at the end of the point jutting out into the sea. Hence the name trio for three and petra for rocks.
