Pale eoliche ad Argostoli

Here is where the island is located:

Argostoli has a recent history: it was founded and chosen as the administrative seat of the Republic of Venice in the second half of the 18th century, which moved there from the Castle of San Giorgio and the Castle of Assos. The island was part of the maritime state (although with some brief Ottoman periods) of the Serenissima. The city is sadly famous for the massacre of the Acqui Division, perpetrated by the Germans between 15 and 26 September 1943, a few days after the announcement of the armistice between Italy and the Allies.

Where is Myrtos beach:

Myrtos is in the region of Pylaros, in the north-west of Kefalonia island, in the Ionian Sea of Greece. Myrtos beach lies between the feet of two mountains, Agia Dynati and Kalon Oros (901m). The surrounding sediment at the beach is generally made up of marble material, a metamorphosed limestone. The beach is made up of round, white cobblestones. The sediment gradually becomes smaller as you approach the shoreline. Because the slope angle has an abrupt drop near the edge of the shoreline, the wave energy is very high and causes the gradation trends from cobbles to pebbles along the beach.
