Smudge
61/2 mile beach is now the Acapulco Hotel and Water Park but in our day there was just a few NAAFI caravans belonging to Akrotiri and a small restaurant/ shack. Always went to 6 mile beach as for a few pounds guys from the section would hire you their tent for the week that was permenanty pitched by the shoreline. It also had a restaurant of sorts with the advantage of a toilet block and showers. My children were straight in the sea as soon as it was light enough which was about 5am. What wonderful memories. Sadly it is now out of bounds as it is a Turkish army camp.
Paradise lost I think.
