Luxury Richtis waterfall that makes a small "bath", where you can swim, it is in one of the most beautiful places of Crete - Richtis gorge. It is located near the village of Exo Mouliana. You can get to the waterfall in two ways - either from the village, or going down to the Richtis beach. In the latter case, the road to the waterfall will be more difficult, but faster.
