Xerokambos
Most of the local landscape is very flat, and so, some of the parts of the beach cannot almost be seen. In some places, the sand or pebble coast slopes down to the water little by little, while in other parts the ladscape is plain that suddenly ends and the sea appears - so, in reality the flat piece of earth surface ends with an up to two metres deep fault. Under this break, there is a two to three metres wide stretch of sand, sand with huge stones, or rocks with sand. Although the beaches there are not really big, they provide enough privacy, and thanks to the breaks of the landscape, they are well protected from the wind. On the other hand, those beaches that are open and slope into the water little by little on several dozens of metres, are completely unprotected.
