Plakias is an old fishing-village on the south coast of the district of Rethymnon. To individual tourists, ▶ Plakias is known since some years but still rather untouched by mass tourism.
Around the port and further on eastward along the sandy beach which lines the bay, some smaller hotels and apartment facilities row up.
