(unmute) Blue Beach in Paxi island. We don't talk enough about coastal Greece in cold season...

For those who wondered this is how rough even the Ionian sea can be even in the summer. When I did this small boat trip our boat was rocking like crazy spraying us all with water making it impossible for us to stand or walk unless we held onto something

And that is the summer (imagine the winter) and still nothing like the Aegean or the open Mediterannean sea

So the next time someone says that "Odysseus stayed with Circe one year because he fucking loved it" Please show them pictures like these! Like our boat was small but still could fit over 100 people and has modern engines and hulls and all and STILL rocked us like no tomorrow. Yeah Odysseus just wouldn't go out in winter in the sea to die!

See also my addition to the Circe analysis that includes the link for Odysseus's ship:

I love you ionian dendrogram about the evolution of the isles evolution
