Almyrolakkas Beach
In the story · Scene not announced
A real filming location (March 2025). The crew built a set on this quiet beach near Gialova, closed off the area for days and used a helicopter to bring in equipment, and the Greek press says important shots were filmed here. No source says which part of Odysseus' journey home was shot on this beach.
