Troy (2004)

Corrected entry: Troy was a natural harbor, but the shots of the sea show waves breaking against the sand, which would indicate a beach. It would be impossible for the Greeks to have sailed their ships onto the beach, they would have been overturned by the changes in tide.

Correction: There are no tides in the Mediterranean Sea. It is too small and is choked off at the Straits of Gibraltar. It was common in Classical times (and even up to the present day) to beach ships during a prolonged stay on land.
