Sand dunes at Pachia Ammos beach. Can you see my wife Camilla in the sand?
There are not many who goes Pachia Ammos. It's a shame, I think, because it's a nice beach with beautiful rock formations. Maybe it's because it's a little way to walk from the parking lot and down to the beach, and Greeks are not known for wanting to walk. Above the beach lies Pachia Ammos Country Club where there is a taverna, cafe and - wait for it! - a swimming pool.
One of several strange rock formations at the beach. Is it a turtle?
This prehistoric animal lives above the beach and keeps a watchful eye on you while you swim.
