although we 'found' a really nice 'Plakias-like' place in Samos, but that is another story for those who might want to know.
Butties.
Pythagarion??

I'd hazard a guess at Kambos (also known as Votsalakia).

Close, very close guys, the much smaller fishing village of Ormos Marathoukambos just around the headland eastwards from Kambos/ Votsalakia.
Like a smaller version of Plakias, I'll take a guess and say it was like Plakias probably was 20 or so years ago, i.e. not yet discovered!
Hello Mark,
I agree this is pleasant resort; however I don't think it has a "far end" beach which is a must for many on this forum. In other respects it ticks the same boxes as Plakias. Neighbouring Kambos has access to such a beach, about 45 mins walk away, although there is a small rocky one nearer.
I agree with what Shinaria said in a different topic that my visit to Plakias this year could be my last if the developments behind the far end spoil things. Plakias ticks all the boxes for me. Tingaki (Kos) has the same feel as Plakias and, agruably, a better "far end" beach but the hinterland isn't so attractive for exploring on foot or in a car. Paleohora also has an excellent beach but although there are plenty of options for those hiring a car, walks from the resort aren't as good as Plakias.
Plakias is changing faster than other resorts I go to and I'm really hoping the day doesn't come when it has changed so much I no longer want to go there.
Mike
