Voidokoilia

‘Voidokilia’ beach is a very famous beach in Greece and it is considered to be one of the most beautiful in Greece. It is located in Messinia, Peloponnese.   The  landscape is very unique  with its sand dunes and marshland, and the beach that has a circular Omega type shape.  It is a great place for bike riding too.  The day that I went was not great for swimming.  It has been a rainy summer so far in Greece.  I arrived in the evening as I was just quickly passing through with no intention for staying too long, but I when I got there I wanted to stay a while longer. So,  I will definitely re-visit this place when the weather is better in the near-future.

Many people will be sitting on these chairs this summer

Empty beach chairs? Only if it’s off season.

Shores at Schinias beach

No swimmers in sight..way to early.

Rocky Shore

These are a few photographs that I took at Schinias beach at Marathon just outside of Athens.  As Greece is surrounded by the ocean,  it only recently dawned on me that I hardly have any beach photos on my blog. This is scandalous.. I know.

First Day At The Beach/Πρώτη Μέρα Στην Παραλία

A nice trip to the beach before the hot summer begins. It was α warm day, but not warm enough for people to want to go for a swim. There were a few who couldn’t wait any longer so they took a quik dip into the ocean.  I, on the other hand, was a lot more happier comfortable taking photographs of the beautiful vista.

Μια ωραία επίσκεψη στην παραλία πριν από το καυτό καλοκαίρι . Ήταν μια ζεστή μέρα, αλλά όχι αρκετά για να θέλει ο κοσμος να  πάει για μπάνιο. Αλλά μερικοί ήταν αρκετoi γενναίοι και εκαναν μια βουτιά. Απλώς δεν μπορούσαν να περιμένουν άλλο. Εγώ από την άλλη πλευρά, ημουν πολύ πιο άνετη τραβοντας φωτογραφίες από την όμορφη θέα.
