What locals remember

A community archive in two parts — recorded conversations with people who know this coast, and a slow-growing album of pictures sent in by locals and travellers.

Oral Histories

Part I

Fisherman · 12:04

Yiannis, b. 1942

"When I was a boy, you could see your shadow on the seabed at ten meters. We measured weather not by forecast, but by the smell of the pines."

Beekeeper · 08:31

Maria, b. 1955

"The thyme on the headland blooms three days after the first cicada. My grandmother taught me to listen for it."

Visitor · 03:47

Anonymous, b. 1994

"When I was a child in 1998, the beach was significantly wider — there was so much more sand between the path and the water than there is today."

Part II

Pictures of the cove submitted by locals and visitors — the seasons, the weather, the small things worth pointing a camera at.
