23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Greek Beaches

The secret, difficult-to-reach beaches of Greek islands are often overlooked by tourist. This keeps the beaches pristine and the water clear. This specific beach is nestled in the skirts of dune-covered cliffs, becoming progressively more remote the further north you walk. It is located within a nature reserve which adds to the sanctity of the place.
