Panormo is a small, romantic, picturesque, seafront village developed in a lovely small gulf 22 km east from Rethymnon. Visitors have always been welcomed into a warm and friendly traditional atmosphere, which the locals retain to the present day. This authentic Cretan village with its narrow streets and bright geraniums is the perfect place for those who want to escape a little and enjoy the peace and tranquillity of Cretan life. It still has the air of quiet village with a few traditional tavernas and bars and a couple of good sandy beaches.
The ancient town of Panormo flourished here from 1st to the 9th century. Panormo is the site of an old port using during Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine times, and there is still much to see from the past. The beautiful surrounding area is ideal for walkers who wish to explore the countryside. There are buses, which go regularly to Rethymno or to Heraklion (about 50min journey) making Panormo an ideal base from which to explore many parts of Crete.
There is a good selection of cafes, traditional tavernas, a butcher, a baker and shops where you can sample the local food and drink at reasonable prices.
