Cannon Beach is a small coastal city in northwest Oregon. It’s known for its long, sandy shore. Standing tall in the ocean, Haystack Rock is a seasonal haven for tufted puffins. On a headland to the north, trails in Ecola State Park offer sweeping views of the ocean, coves and a lighthouse.
Paradise Bay Beach Malta, one of Malta's most spectacular beaches, which is located at the islands farthest north point very close to Mellieha Bay. This is one of the most beautiful beaches on the island.
The paradise beach is unique as it is at the bottom of very high cliffs and it overlooks the beautiful islands of Gozo and Comino Island
If you zoom in all the way to the horizon, you can find Annisquam Light, which has been the center of many of my other photos. Here it is from a great distance.
It was looking to be a good sunset so I headed to the coast to see what I could get. Such beautiful beaches up here on both sides of the river!
Coral Beach is situated in the north of Skye by the small crofting community of Claigan. The beach is made from crushed white coral like seaweed that makes the water look tropical blue when the sun comes out.
In Lake Tahoe facing the mountains surrounding Emerald Bay. Kayakers start from this beach to paddle into Emerald Bay.
Imagine you are on a dream beach in the summer and have it alone for you...
Reminiscent of the Caribbean, a manless sandy beach on the Isle of Harris, outer Hebrides.
Stell dir vor, du bist im Sommer an einem Traumstrand und hast ihn für dich allein....
An die Karibik erinnernder menschenleerer Sandstand auf der Insel Harris, äußere Hebriden.
Danke für deinen Besuch! Thanks for visiting!

Pop Corn Beaches are beaches where the sand has been replaced by a kind of carbonaceous shells that have a morphology and color reminiscent of popcorn. These are calcium carbonate skeletons synthesized by a species of red algae that inhabit the Canary coasts at shallow depths, called rhodoliths.
Rhodoliths occur extensively around the shores of Fuerteventura Island in the Canary Archipelago, with Lithothamnion cf. corallioides being the most prominent species.
It is by the action of the waves, that over the decades, a large number of rhodoliths end up being washed ashore, whose remains contribute to the formation of the sediments that make up the modern beaches, so these unusual beaches have been formed very slowly.
Although rhodoliths are resistant to a variety of environmental disturbances, they can be severely affected by storms, harvesting, ocean acidification and global warming, and the beds are known to be between 20 and 100 meters deep in most parts of the Canary Islands.
Along the beaches there are panels explaining what these "popcorn" are and that their extraction is forbidden, in spite of which the plundering is still very frequent. Unfortunately, every year tourists and locals remove a considerable amount of rhodoliths from the beaches, which represents a threat to these ecosystems, since, as I mentioned before, the remains of dead rhodoliths contribute greatly to the sediments that form contemporary beaches.
