What's nearby

  • The access to Preveli Beach is best from the west (near Preveli Monastery), where you can hike down to the beach. The obvious shot I guess, is this rock in the shape of a heart. There are a lot of possibilities for composition, the high tides in these day forced me to shoot straight from an upper position. (21mm / f8 / 2.6sec)

The property was absolutely fabulous… we’ve had the privilege in staying in some amazing places and this was genuinely one of the best! It’s even more beautiful than the photos! The view was phenomenal, the pool great (we were worried a bit small before we went) but actually was the perfect size for our kids and good depth (1.6m) at the end.We were created by the agent for the property and there was a basket of fruit and some staples stocked in the kitchen.
