Shipwreck...

A few pics of the "Panagiotis" which ran aground whilst being pursued by the greek navy, where the crew abandoned ship....she was smuggling tobacco & whisky. This is the final resting place.......

Stayed in Laganas! fkin mental there! saw 3 car accidents, 1 quad crash, and 2 moped mishaps!

we did the smugglers trip, which is all round the island stopping off for an hour at the wreck beach, then a couple of swim stops. 26 euro! superb day!

i went to feutaventura bout two years ago, and on one of the secluded beaches (dont reccomened going by rental fiesta - jeep was much more fun - oh look mountain put yor foot down lmao!!)

there was half a wreck of a white star line liner, from the front it looked exactly the same as the Titanic but apparently it was half-3/4 its size, was on tow for scrap at south africa, but went through heavy storms and the tow rope's snapped and there she now lies!

amazing sight!! might scan in some pics if i get a chance!

Don´t remember where I found this pic - but it´s kinda spooky. I think it was taken in an area where the sand bars/islands are constantly moving with nature. I think the autopilot was set - and out of nowhere..................
