Venetian Harbour

Venetian Harbour in Rethymno by night. Recommend a small restaurant called Taverna Knossos, reservations necessary.

We walked there and. Visit a lot Juweliere Shops,ist Always nice to order from local shops,we also had something gorgeous to eat at 1300h,nice people and lots of fun there in the harbor.

Another lovely part of Rethymno, relaxing to be at the water , nice views of the harbour and light house area. Great place to chill with a cool drink have a meal etc. Very calm place no hassle no stress just enjoy the experience

Very pretty port in Rethymno which is adjacent to the old town. Lots of cafes and restaurants to sit in and enjoy the view and the passers by.

Old Venetian Harbour of Rethymno The Old Venetian harbour of Rethymno dates back to the 13th century where it was used as a trade port by the Venetians and later by the Turks. At the end of the mole stands the imposing lighthouse. This is not Venetian, however, as it was built by the Turks after the 17th century. Many tavernas , the fishing boats rocking on the water and the Venetian buildings create a picturesque whole. The Venetian harbour is the ideal starting-point for a tour of the old town or a visit to the Fortezza, the Venetian fortress of Rethymnon.

Great place for a night out,

The only word to describe it is nice. Nothing more than that. If you want to see the best of Rethymno try the old town and you'll enjoy the narrow cobled streets with beautiful tavernas and shops.

Lovely harbour to visit to take pictures
