The name of Triopetra means “Three Rocks” and comes from the three stones that emerge through the sea in this wonderful beach. It is located 52 km south of Rethymno kai 13k southeast of the village Akoumia.

It is a mildly organized beach with umbrellas and sunbeds and near the beach guests can find many taverns and rooms to let. On the other side of the hill of Triopetra, there is the beach of Agios Pavlos, also a famous sandy beach where due to the difficulty of reaching there is a lot of privacy and tranquility.
