I can't stand the sand, hate suncream and get bored easily. But the Greek island of Zakynhos offers free accommodation and food - my wife's kids own a restaurant and a villa there so it would be rude not to visit occasionally ;)

This is the headlining of the taxi we took from the airport on arrival:

And a bit of arty-fartyness with footprints on the beach:

There used to be loads of these huts along the coast,once upon a time. The old men would use them as shelters and sit and watch the sea until they spotted a shosl of fish, whereupon they would pop down and cast their nets. There aren't many fish left in the Ionian Sea now...

We did get into town:

But it's really about the sea and the sky:

...and the beach, of course:

Those sunsets are beautiful! I am not big on beaches either but I do love ocean side sunsets and pictures of beaches. I actually love the picture with the beach signs. I am surprised there isn't a thread just for signs really. I have seen some very interesting ones out there. Either way, Nice shots!
