Rethymnon is a pleasant surprise for most travelers. While Chania gets most of the attention, Rethymon's beautiful Old Town, with its Venetian fortress and protected harbor, makes it a standout destination but draws less tourists.
In a stunning location at the base of the Psilorítis mountain range, about halfway up the island's north coast, Rethymnon is the third largest town on Crete after Heraklion and Chania. As you drive along the expressway, you'll easily identify the town from its imposing fortress on the waterfront.
The periods of Venetian and Turkish occupation have left their indelible mark on the Old Town, which is a pleasure to explore on foot and is filled with Venetian mansions and churches, several small Turkish-era mosques, and the 16th-century fortress.
Today, the town is also home to a university, and the local student population keeps the eateries and galleries of the old town busy throughout the year. It also serves as a gateway for things to do around the island, including outdoor activities-take a hike to the top of Psiloritis (also known as Mount Ida), which is the second highest mountain in Greece, or spend an afternoon day tripping to a hidden beach like Prevali, some 35 kilometers to the south of town.
