It feels like ages since the end of my summer trip at west Crete and yet it is hardly one month and a half!
It was a trip focused on remote places away from the masses of tourists and the crowded attractions. Nevertheless we did make a stop at one of the most popular landmarks of Crete!
Lake Preveli attracts thousands of tourists every summer to admire the second (after Vai) biggest palm tree forest at Crete and cool off in the water of the river that flow into the sea!
But even in August you can enjoy it practically alone. Just go there early in the morning, finish your walk by ten o'clock and go away before eleven when it starts to look more crowded than the streets of New York!
And that's exactly what we did :)
It is a magical place and although it was burnt to the ground ten years ago, the trees have miraculously recover and nature has restore it's balance. If you are close don't neglect to visit it. You won't regret it!
All the pictures and the words are mine.
