    The sea weather in Greece can vary considerably during the summer months, and not all beaches are calm. The best beaches for swimming are usually the ones facing south and in some way protected, as the Aegean is usually agitated by north winds this time of year.

    Its the tourists that adopt the dogs and cats usually the sandinavians danish and english. I believe the dog shelter was started by a danish woman who married a greek. There is also cat shelter and feeding in the main town. Such a great idea as on crete the state of the street cats emaciated and ill is heart breaking

    I wonder if tbe jellyfish are an August seasonal thing... the Chesapeake Bay (Maryland & Virginia) has jellyfish every August, traditionally, same time as softshell crab season. 🦀😄
    But at the Atlantic beaches nearby, like Ocean City' & Rehoboth, I don't remember ever dealing with jellyfish at all. 🌊🌊🏖️🌊🌊
    In the NYC area, I notice lots of small white jelly fish in Jamaica Bay right now, this month. Never have seen any in the Atlantic beach waters nearby - Long Beach, Jones Beach, Far Rockaway, etc - until this year, when just last week we saw 2 small clear jellyfish while swimming the waves at Rockaway Beach.

    To clarify on driving: non-EU/EEA/CH nationals need an International Drivers Permit. This law has been on the books for a very long time. Whether the car rental agency asks for it or not, you still need it, if you get pulled over. However, the requirement was recently dropped for Americans, Canadians, Australians, Japanese, South Koreans, South Africans, and a couple other countries.

    Since you mentioned International drivers' license here's what happened to me. About 2 years ago in winter.. I made a weekend decision to fly to Greece (From California)...and departed on Monday. Wanted to visit Meteora (awesome as you showed in your video), Thermopylae (It sucks! There's no there there, totaly neglected), and anything interesting while doing my loop from Athens. (No beaches though, couldn't care less about beaches after living more than 10+ years 5 minutes from Florida beaches ;-)).
    The car rental guy in Athens asked me for my International drivers' license... As I was ready to leave, since I did not have it .... he said that I can rent a car from them BUT:
    1/ police can fine me Euro 1000+ AND 2/ I would be personally responsible should anything happen to the rented car ..
    I did take a car after thinking it over for about 10 seconds (I knew I would probably never visit Greece again, so my only chance). Since I could not purchase car insurance from the place and I knew that my Visa credit card coverage would never accept any claim from me should anything happen to the car (because I did not comply with the Greek traffic requirements) I absolutely strictly followed all the Greek road rules/speed limits/etc. I just didn't want any attention from the police. I cannot tell you how many angry looks I got from the Greek drivers ;-) when I strictly complied with all speed limits!! But anyway, I made it without any scratch, interaction with police etc etc. So all ended well, and besides Athens & Meteora my "driving without IDL" will be something I will remember about Greece forever ... 😜

    They catch big dogs and put tbem in cages than let them being free run on the beech and find their own food. It makes no sense to me plus these dogs want to be set free. It also make not much sense that you walk to the beech and not ride your motor bike up to the water while pointing out its easier to ride a bike on these little island road paths than driving a car!

      @GabrielTravelerVideos  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, that explains the choppy water. Looks like it's generally windier on that side of the island and thus rougher seas. But it doesn't explain the jellyfish or particles. Apparently the particles are due to the wildfires.
