Agios Pavlos Beach is located on the south coast of Crete, near the village of Agios Pavlos. It is very impressive as it is surrounded by rugged cliffs and sand hills. The beach is relatively short but it does not get crowded because there is no easy access as there are stairs to climb down. There are no trees and the beach is not organized. If it gets windy there is another beach next to it with south orientation and easy road access.
