Taking a Holiday at Petres Beach, Crete, Greece

Taking a holiday at Petres Beach on the beautiful island of Crete in Greece is an experience that epitomizes the idyllic Mediterranean getaway. This picturesque destination offers stunning vistas, a serene atmosphere, and a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the tranquility of Cretan hospitality and natural beauty.

Beach Type

Petres Beach is characterized mainly by its smooth pebbles and some sandy patches. The beach's composition provides a different texture underfoot compared to the often sought-after powdery white sands of other beaches. However, this should not deter visitors, as the clear waters and pebble seabed create an ideal environment for marine life. Snorkeling and diving are particularly rewarding activities here due to the underwater landscape that includes rocks and occasional reefs, which attract an array of fish and offer fascinating underwater exploration.

Beach Activities

  • Snorkeling: With clear waters and an interesting seabed, snorkeling is a favorite among visitors seeking to explore marine life.
  • Sunbathing: The pebbly nature of the beach provides a unique sunbathing experience with less sand sticking to your body.
  • Swimming: The crystal-clear waters are enticing for swimmers looking for a refreshing dip in the sea.
  • Boat Tours: Since Petres Beach is located close to other attractions around Crete, boat tours are popular for exploring nearby caves and secluded beaches.
  • Photography: The scenic backdrop makes Petres Beach an excellent spot for photography enthusiasts.

While Petres Beach itself may not have large resorts directly on its shore, there are several accommodations within close proximity that provide easy access to the beach:

  • Creta Mare Hotel: A quaint hotel offering beautiful sea views and comfortable rooms.
  • Petrino Horio: An authentic experience in traditional stone-built rooms with modern amenities.

Areas to Stay In

When visiting Petres Beach, staying in areas such as Rethymno or Georgioupoli can be advantageous:
