Plakias Beach
Ethnarchou Eleftheriou VenizelouBeautiful beach, great for families
Lovely beach with palm trees, great for days out. There is no direct parking available, so we would recommend parking at Drymiskiano Ammoudi beach and walking across to Preveli beach. It is about a 600m walk along the seafront with stunning views, although is fairly steep in places. There are also other routes to Preveli beach available from other locations, including boat trips.

Neighbourhoods
Quiet and traditional Greek village, with a few local cafes serving food and drink. The historic church of Panagia is also well worth visiting, as it dates back as far as the 11th century, and was also the site where the locals of the village refused to surrender to the Turks in 1829.
