Time and experiences often change the perception on what beach we like most. One thing stays these are the magic moments that made the beach memorable to us. Unfortunately beach photos of earlier holidays were left behind meanwhile our relocation. What remains are the memories. At fourteen my first beach visit ever was in the Haut-Normandie of France at the English Channel. Since then holiday became the equal to spend time at the sea. Then there was the Mediterranean Sea in Spain and France, sandy beaches with warm and calm water, crowded with neat rows of deck-chairs and sunshades. The Atlantic Coast in France brings to mind sandy beaches, vivid ocean, with a fresh breeze and clear sky which made the decision hard to try the water. In Biarritz the beach revealed a bizarre double life. During night backpackers and hitchhikers celebrated until they fell asleep at the sandy beach. In the early morning hours with the first day light swarms of busy people came to sweep them off the beach. All in preparation for an immaculate representation to the daytime holiday crowds and for perfect beach photos. The journey to Wales, the west coast of Ireland and Scotland nurtured the urge to live one day close to the coast. Even though I was rarely actually at the beach, a result of travelling without car, their view was always adjacent. The Ocean Beaches around the islands Margarita, Cariacou, Trinidad and Grenada left certainly a vibrant remembrance. Tropical beaches with palms skirting matched up with warm deep blue to green water. The background filled with incredible joyful musical sounds of the people living there. Having the sounds of steely bands, soca, calypso, or salsa rhythms in my ears with the beach scenery is something I loved and would revisit any time. Vejers Strand in Denmark at the North Sea is a long white sand beach followed by waves of overgrown sand dunes. This sandy beach is used for different fun activities like swimming in summer, kite flying in the after season and sledging during winter. The beach café with the candy maker window display would be Karim’s and Mariam’s reason to establish it as their favourite one. Every single one had something special At the present we have the choice of very different beaches in driving distance from 20 to 50 minutes. On the west coast we have the black sand beaches where rips make it essential to swim between the flags. The east coast at the Hauraki Gulf features white sand beaches with gentler conditions. Very tidal are the beaches around the Manukau Harbour and Waitemata Harbour. My personal favourite one is Karekare Beach at the west coast. The variety on beaches and activities there is limitless. There is a favourite sunset beach, pebble beach, sun bathing, shell collecting, sandcastle building, walking, swimming, floating, snorkelling, surfing, body surfing, kite surfing beach only to name some.Here on this page we invite those travel websites featuring a specific coast as a destination to exchange links with us.
