The easiest way to get to Preveli Palm Beach is by joining a tour that includes transportation or driving yourself. Just be aware that you’ll need to walk down a long and rather steep path from the parking area to the beach itself. Another option is going by boat from Agia Galini or Plakias.

The best time of year to visit Preveli Palm Beach, at least in terms of weather, is during the summer season, when the water is warm and the sun is bright. On the downside, this is also the most crowded time on Crete, so you may prefer a late-spring or early-fall visit instead.

There are all sorts of activities available at Preveli Palm Beach. While plenty of people just come here to sunbathe and swim, you can also head out from the beach to the Kourtaliotiko River aboard a paddleboat or canoe. The area is also great for hiking, and the Preveli Monastery is a short walk away.

Preveli Palm Beach itself is great for families with children, but getting there with younger kids can be tricky, since the path down to the beach is fairly steep. If you have smaller kids it’s better to take a boat straight to the beach. Discounted boat tickets are often available for children.
