Road trips are always interesting but unplanned ones can be really fascinating! We were driving along the south coastline of Crete heading west, with no specific program or timetable.
It was the second week of our trip when we decided to detour from our coastal route and explore a bit the highland scenery. What we didn't know was that this detour would be the "checkmate" of our trip!
After practicing my driving skills to consecutive u-turns we reached the harsh beauty of the mountains.
And when we were about to return to the beach that we had camped the previous night, we saw a sign pointing to a place that we had never heard of.
Of course we followed it :)
At first all we saw was a meandering dirty road and some annoyed goats but in a while the stunning view come to affirm that we were on the right road!
The end of the road led us to a tiny settlement with just three buildings and a beach! And it was all we needed!
We spent there the busiest days of Greek summer, the ones around the 15th of August and yet we remained in a chilled, low key vibe, enjoying the breathtaking sea and the amazing scenery!
PS In case you didn't notice and you want to congratulate me, I'm a Rep 70 hiveian now! It took me more than 2,5 years but here I am :)
All the pictures and the words are mine.
