Hello RethymnoHello RethymnoThe Rethymno regional unit sits between Chania to the west and Heraklion to the east, with the Cretan Sea on the north coast and the Libyan Sea on the south. It is divided into five municipalities: Rethymno, Mylopotamos, Anogeia, Amari and Agios Vasileios. The north coast holds the city plus resorts like Panormo and Bali, the mountainous interior is dominated by Mount Ida (Psiloritis) with villages such as Anogeia and the Amari valley, and the south coast reaches the sea at Plakias, Preveli and Agia Galini. Most main roads radiate from Rethymno city, so it makes a natural base for day trips in any direction.
