A tranquil sandy shoreline at the mouth of the Almiros
River—ideal for families and nature lovers seeking gentle
waters, riverside scenery, and authentic Cretan relaxation.

About


Potamos Beach lies just east of Georgioupoli on Crete’s northern coast, where the Almiros River meets the Mediterranean. This unique setting creates a blend of freshwater and seawater, forming calm, shallow pools perfect for children and waders. Backed by reed beds and olive groves, the beach retains a peaceful, unspoiled character despite nearby amenities. Visitors can stroll along the riverbanks, watch waterbirds in the lagoon, or simply unwind under umbrellas on the soft, golden sand.
