MyPictureSunday #16 - Saitan and Vai Beach

[timsaid]

Welcome and greetings from Greece my Steemian friends!
I was overwhelmed by the amount of positive feedback on my last TimTravels post that I didn't want to let you wait any longer for this new episode. It makes me happy to see that you enjoy my photography and travel blog.
Let's go together on a new journey this time!
It's time for Saitan Beach.


Saitan beach is located in the northwest of Crete and is a hidden gem. Mostly known by locals this place is a must see. You need to take a climb down in order to get to the beach. I recommend you to have proper shoes with you since the way is tough. On your way down you will meet some new friends like him.


The crystal clear water and surrounding rocks make this place unique. You can even cliff dive from the rocks! Btw. I did a backflip from 10m. Maybe I will post a video in the next TimTravels episode. On our way back we saw an amazing sun set. One of its kind.

The next day we wanted to visit another palm beach called Vai. This one is located on the east of Crete. The way was long and it took us 4 hours to get there from Matala Beach. We had to stop several times because of goats blocking the street. They even came to the car to say hello. Goats? You are on Steemit now! You made it!



Finally we reached Vai. It was about time to relax and this place seems to be made for relaxing. Do you agree?





To round off the whole we visited the local Tavern at the beach and ordered some traditional Greek food. Enjoy the rest of the pictures!






A friends of mine I met on Crete. I know him from the old school times. There are sometimes amusing coincidences.

I hope you enjoyed this episode of MyPictureSunday. Leave a comment and tell us what you think and where you would like to go on your next trip. In addition to that I made a twitter account you can follow: twitter.com/timsaidsworld

Steem on and see you at the SteemFest!
Tim

Beautiful photography. I've read some scary stories about this place, but it's so beautiful...

[ankapolo]

curious, what are the scary stories?

[sunravelme]

Those beaches are beautiful! I feel like there was a missed opportunity for people to be kissing in the photo that says "This is a good kiss spot". Man I want to go to Greece so bad now!

[yehey]

One day I will visit this place. Thank you for sharing these lovely photos.

Follow me @Yehey
Thank you

[mohammad1s]

[tiffanyrej]

Aside from its History, Greece definitely has is one of the best places in the world where you can find the beauty of life and nature.

[tatatalalala]

[vadimlasca]

Everything looks fantastic: the hidden beach, the food... Thank you for share it

[tiffanyrej]

I agree @valimlasca. I love that hidden beach. I'm not from Greece but I hope I can get there someday ^_^

[tarekadam]

The beach you showed on the first two pictures is absolutely amazing! I didn't had Crete on my travel destination list but after this post I definitely plan to go there some day.

[palwashabhatti]

Your pictures deserve all the compliments Tim, I love the 'This is a good kiss spot' picture, haha. Falling in love with Greece <3

[timsaid]

Where else do you see such an sign? :) Thanks buddy

[palwashabhatti]

No where atleast in my country :( haha

[zangliss]

Epic photos!

[hananan]

Wonderful place, thanks for sharing.
Somehow for me the most interesting part of this post is the goat, I wonder if it try to find you in purpose, perhaps it want to change its life by becoming an artist, and this would be its 1st encounter. Haha
What a cutie.

[timsaid]

We need a name for the goat. What do you suggest?

[ilovetocomment]

dinner.

[timsaid]

lol

[joshvel]

May I suggest Upgoat, for the name of the goat, Lol.

[nonnewtonian]

Dimitri

[hananan]

Sammy for summer, its color reminds me of the warmth of summer.
However 'dinner' really sounds funny

[timsaid]

Dinner lol. Maybe Cheeseman

[hananan]

Just let it choose which one he prefer, lol

[moneymaster]

veggie

[gaivusis]

What about just - "Ginger"? xD. Just delete "ALE" form "Ginger ale", or if you reverse this option you can get only "Ale". So call it "Ale" :D

[ndc6673]

Cretey katziki!

[elysiian]

[vimalsambath]

[serkagan]

A superficial article @timsaid, I've always been attracted to such exotic places. The sea, the sun, a small bay with a beach, in a word, a paradise :)

[timsaid]

Paradise fits well to describe it

[serkagan]

Yes, there are very few such places on earth, so you are happy when you see them :)

[angami]

Awesome I really want to visit

[atom]

It is a really good place.
The food looks delicious as well.
I really want to go.

[shelbymonster]

[sabjabal]

Hi Tim. Looks like a great time. good food, awesome looking beach, and your photography is nothing short of breathtaking. And of course, who doesn't love a cute friendly goat every now and again? My wife and I have a European trip planned for June. The Greek isles were on our radar, but we settled on Budapest. Maybe Greece next year. we'll see. Anyway, thanks for taking the time to share this with us.
