Daskaleio Beach

We went to Daskalió Beach today.


It is on the eastern coast of Attica Peninsula, east of Keratea.

It was the 3rd time for us to be there and this time we were very disappointed because of quantity of rubbish in the water. I am not speaking about seaweeds or wood tips. I am speaking about small pieces of plastic and paper. They should have come from rubbish dump in the sea, maybe from some of the islands nearby.

I have never seen so much rubbish in the sea. The water might be free of bacteria, but who like to swim among the vinyl and paper pieces?

For a country which is supposed to live on sea-related tourism, I would appreciate better care of the environment.
