I went in Greece and visited the Myrtos Beach located in Kefalonia Myrtos in October of 2015 for my honeymoon purpose and had spent two entire days with my spouse at the beach sides

The numbers of exotic locations in Greece were ample and sometimes it became difficult for me and my wife to decide where to go. We went in Greece for honeymoon and had spent 15 days together in the country. We travelled in different parts of the country and enjoyed numerous historical structures and monuments. But the day beside the Myrtos Beach is still vivid in my memory. The commoners of the area said that the beach was one of the wonderful beaches in the world for its special turquoise water and the breathtaking sunset views. The entire beach was filled with white pebbles and the serene atmosphere truly attracted us. The beach lied between the feet of two mountains and geographically located in the north-west of Kefalonia Island

Thank you for honouring me with the question. I went to my honeymoon trip with my wife. After lots of calculations and budgeting, we decided to go in Greece for the trip and it was the most suitable destination for the purpose. We did lots of things there and spent two days consecutively at the beach. The beach is enriched with natural features and beauties. I had found that the beach was made up of marble materials and white cobblestones. The shoreline view is dazzling and the waves are higher than the other beaches in Greece. Walking through the beach provides a feeling of freshness. The gentle breeze is also enjoyable

We did a large number of things beside the shoreline and enjoyed doing so. The beach made us crazy with its stunning look and natural beauties. The deep blue sky, the turquoise water, bathing in the water, water sports with my wife, clicking photos and posing for them, running across the shoreline, waiting for the next wave to sink under etc. were the common forms of entertainment for us. Besides, we took sea foods from the nearby restaurants. But we had fun during the bath most. The water was fresh and crystal clear. I also have bottled some water as a souvenir for me. Besides, I wanted to surf on the waves but my wife did not agree because of less water depth. The photos were amazing, especially the sunset scenes were superb! If I knew that you would ask me about the trip, I would have brought some of the images for you

Ahh!! The days were great!! I truly enjoyed the trip and it was worthy of the efforts I invested arranging it. We saved money for three months to get on board for the trip. Besides, budgeting was the most important factor for me as I was the only wage earner for my family. The expenses were high in my city, Bacoor in Philippines and I had to cut several expenses to save the money. Thereby, we planned to make the honeymoon a perfect one. I think it is well known to you that honeymoons are done once in a lifetime and thus it should be done perfectly. We had enjoyed almost all the available amenities in Greece and particularly by the beach side. The trip will be ever reminding to me and my wife and thank you for the chance to recalling the memories of those days
