But we are planning to stay in that area next summer for a longer period so I've got it tagged thanks...Lovely photo of the coastline which really puts into perspective the location, overlooking the Med with small pine woods around....We actually went for a swim after visiting the site right in front of Neapolis with the ancient Greek walls running down onto the beach...</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=83175]@akeady[/USER]......Yes when we saw the same sign 'Ruinas' I thought 'ahhh' but on arrival firstly we were quite blown away by the setting and secondly spent around 4 hours calmly walking around the site, there were only 3 other people.
