Feeling a bit chipper today.
A monumental church perched on top of a cliff. looms over our beach and site.
We strike out to explore. The church was only built in the 60s as a shrine to a miraculous Byzantine black Madonna. Nauseatingly kitsch, a strong stomach required to explore but with a huge local following. Along the line of trinket stalls we find the ancient ruins of Tyndaris.
Rambled and scrambled all over the site. Had a great time exploring, wild flowers everywhere and stunning views along the coast. Back to the camp and onto the beach for a refreshing swim and a bit of sunbathing.
