The southern coast of Rethymnon hosts some of the most beautiful, untouched exotic beaches of Crete. At Agios Pavlos, huge sand-hills descend steeply and vanish into the sea, forming a beach, where one may sense the most positive vibrations of the island. On the adjacent beaches of Ligres and Pahia Ammos by Kerames the scenery remains mysterious. However, the most brilliant turquoise waters in Rethymnon are found on the beaches of Skinaria, Ammoudi and Damnoni, all located near Plakias.
Katsouni is located at the foot of Mount Asiderotas. It is preferred by many nudists, as it is one of the most secluded beaches in the area.
In the eastern part of the peninsula there is the small beach of Katevati, which has sand and pebbles. It has the imposing Talaia Mountains as a backdrop.
