Beach

Sunset

When we arrived in Colombo today, I couldn't resist photographing the sunset on the beach at about 5.30 pm. Finally we are back in Sri Lanka and will stay here until next spring.

I'm sick of sea...Sorry ;-)))

Mauritius Lagoon

Memories of paradise...... maldivian pleasures in the Dusit Thani Resort - Mudhdhoo Island

A Sri Lankan boy runs out of the water. Does he have to get something? Did something sting him? We do not know. In the background typical Sri Lankan fishing boats.

Early dawn at the Flying Fish Cove on Christmas Island with the very photogenic rock.

Under full moonlight at Umhlanga Rocks in Durban, South Africa, looking out into the Indian Ocean. This is a 30 second exposure so the fisherman was extraordinarily still.

Lovely beach but rough sea...

thanks for the visit

Along our 1.5 km long beach Mawella there are probably half a dozen small resorts, boutique hotels or private accommodation. I estimate that now in the high season a total of about 40 people spend their holidays here. Since the beach is located to the south, it can hardly be enjoyed during the day. But early in the morning, around sunrise and early evening, there are always a few people frolicking on the beach. It's always interesting for me to see how differently people use the beach. People know and greet each other, especially long-term residents. Some only appear briefly and can hardly believe the silence, the peace and the direct nature. Here's an obvious influencer setting up her mobile phone on a tripod and then standing in front of the camera in the water to produce a short sequence.

Dolly Beach on Christmas Island has to be the prettiest beach I've ever been on. Warm, isolated, turquoise water and huge waves.

Traditional hand-crafted, Arabic-styled fishing dhows rest at sea as a hot equator sun sets over the Indian Ocean and the Lamu Archipelago off Kenya's Swahili Coast. Manda Island and the Shela dunes appear on the horizon.

Our dhow and the larger dhow in the backdrop were crafted in a small village further south on Mozambique’s stretch of the Swahili Coast. The three smaller Mashua dhows with folded sails were crafted in the traditional dhow-building village of Matondoni on the Kenyan island of Lamu.

Swahili racing teams come together several times a year to compete with the smaller, lighter Mashua dhows. The finest dhows are selected from villages across the archipelago to race under sail through a complicated series of buoys in the Manda channel, combining speed and balance with elaborate tacking and maneuvering competence.

........... and hope it doesn't sting like a bee.

small fish in the lagoon with strange way of moving if the water gets too shallow (folds the fins in and then seems to walk)

never seen this type before

haven't been successful in finding an id for this.

may be known locally as mar dook

Sotto il cielo stellato di Zanzibar, l'oceano Indiano si fonde con la vastità della Via Lattea, creando un orizzonte infinito. Il vento accarezza dolcemente la sabbia, mentre il silenzio della notte avvolge tutto.

Ricordo quel momento. Ero completamente solo, ma alzando lo sguardo verso le stelle, la solitudine spariva completamente e lasciava il posto ad una meraviglia profonda
