Kleopatra beach. Kleopatra beach's sand from the surface and from the depth 2,5m. October, 2005. Пляж на острове Клеопатры. Фотографии проб песка на этом пляже, взятых с поверхности и глубины 2,5м. Октябрь 2005 года. Существует легенда, что песок на этот пляж был завезен из Египта. Доказать это (впрочем, как и обратное) не удается до сих пор.

Legend says that the sand was brought from Egypt (or Algeira?) on the order of Augustus, to prepare a beach for Cleopatra. If you look at it closely, it is not an ordinary sand, but crumbles of shells, somehow became spherical.
