Caswell Beach still has some humble and old beach bungalows. This is one of a few at Caswell Beach on the Atlantic Ocean in Brunswick County, North Carolina.
Converse Cottage
500 Atlantic Ave.
Built in 1880
This 41-room Queen Anne is known as the Converse Cottage because it was built opposite the house on the south corner and occupied by the John H. Converse family. As part of the Ocean County Historic Sites Survey, Architectural Historian Michael May speculated that this house and its twin were designed by the Wilson Brothers & Company firm of architects and engineers who were responsible for many other large estate houses in the early years of Beach Haven's development. The house was constructed for John H. Converse, an officer in the Baldwin Locomotive Company, who would later serve as the president of the Pennsylvania Railroad until his death in 1925. In 1976, Florence S. Brown owned the house.
The Converse Cottage is listed in the National Register of Historic Places (address is listed as 504 Atlantic Ave.).

Sunset Beach in Oahu, Hawaii.
Surfer unknown.
In Oahu and drove up to the north shore of the island, in search of the kamikaze surfers. This was my second stop. Great surf, but waves were breaking pretty far out. Was hoping to get closer to the surfers.

Pleasure Beach is situated along the South Shore area of Blackpool along the Fylde coast, adjacent to the promenade, opposite South Pier along Ocean Boulevard and directly above Watson road. The main entrance is to the front of the initial park and approximately 38 metres (125 ft) from the Pleasure Beach Casino. The ticket sales is opposite the entrance (below the Noah's Ark attraction) and is adjacent to the Globe Theatre. The main car park is to the left side of the White Tower restaurant, behind Valhalla and to the right of the Grand National station. The additional coach park is to the back of the park adjacent to the trim break section of the Pepsi Max Big One and in front of Nickelodeon Streak. Some catering and retail kiosks are situated near to the entrance of the park. The entrance plaza is directly behind the Casino building and is themed to correspond with the Noah's Ark ride which site on top of the structure. The park is lined with tall metal gates that connect to the entrance building and the main gift shop, underneath the Noah's Ark ride. The staff entrance is towards the back of the park, behind the Grand National. Blackpool Pleasure Beach railway station is nearby.
The park is currently home to nearly 40 rides and attractions, including twelve roller coasters, of which five are wooden - the Grand National, Big Dipper, Rollercoaster, Wild Mouse and Blue Flyer. The newest roller coaster, 'Infusion' was opened in 2007 (having been re-located from defunct sister-park, Pleasureland Southport, where it was known as TraumaTizer). When it opened in 1994, Pepsi Max Big One was the tallest, fastest and steepest roller coaster of any park in the world. It was also substantially one of the longest, measuring 5,497 feet (1,675 m) long. Currently, the ride holds the crown as the tallest in the UK, measuring 213 ft (65 m), (235 ft above sea level.) and features a drop of 205 ft (62 m). The Pleasure Beach is one of the few parks left in the world to operate a traditional wooden Wild Mouse coaster. The ride was built entirely in house, post-World War II and is still in complete working order. It was also the first park in Europe to introduce a full inverting steel coaster, Irn-Bru Revolution, and the first to install a Space Shot ride, Tango Ice Blast which was manufactured by S&S Sports Of Utah. The park went on to launch Valhalla, which was designed by Sarner, a UK based theme park design company. Valhalla is sponsored by the Daily Star and remains prominently the 'biggest and most spectacular dark ride in the world.' At a cost of £15 million it is also the most expensive in-house attraction in the world. Later, the Pleasure Beach opened Bling, a Zierer Star Shape spin ride of which only two are operated in the world. The latest record is taken by Infusion which is the world's first suspended looping coaster entirely over water. The park has a wide variety of modern and classic-age rides and operates a separate family-themed section called Nickelodeon Land, towards the back of the park. This section of the park includes numerous small attractions suitably aimed at younger children and tweens, including a Log Flume-type attraction,two 1,099 feet (335 m) long junior wooden coasters and various small carousel-type attractions. The park also has its own costumed mascots which follows on from Disney's theory of character costuming regarding entertainment for younger guests.

I hardly gave this image a second look until yesterday. It's exactly as I remember the moment. It was cool night but had a warm feel to it as I walked along the shore of Lake Michigan, shortly before heading back to a campfire. The sun was set, or at least hidden behind the trees, and all I could see was a pink/orange glow across the horizon.
Himarë lies between the Ceraunian Mountains and the Ionian Sea and is part of the Albanian Riviera.
In antiquity the region was inhabited by the Greek tribe of the Chaonians. The town of Himarë is believed to have been founded as Chimaira (Χίμαιρα) by the Chaonians as a trading outpost on the Chaonian shore. However, another theory suggest that it comes from Greek χείμαρρος (cheimarros), meaning "torrent".

Polihale Beach lies at the end of about 8 miles or so of dirt road where the road in Kauai ends and the spectacular Na Pali Coast ends. The beach is part of the largest continuous beach in the Hawaiian Islands sandwiched between the Na Pali Coast to the north and the Hawaiian Pacific Missile Range Facility just to the south. The beach is a popular camping destination and is one of the best places in Hawaii to watch the sunset. The beach here is not only long but wide and the scenery is spectacular making the long drive down a bumpy dirt road worth every second.
Varadero beach—some call it the world’s greatest beach—has long been the pride of Cuba, and a magnet for the rich and famous. Today, a broad range of hotels and resorts on this wide, sandy beach offer affordable vacations to please any pocketbook.
Considered by many as the world's most beautiful beach, Varadero is part of a peninsula that stretches far out into the calm waters of the Atlantic. Its 21-kilometre strip of fine white sand is an ideal vacation spot for sun-lovers, water babies and golfers. Its location on a narrow peninsula ensures that it is constantly cooled by tropical breezes.

These little ones ran to the sand before mom changed into their playclothes. Now mom is having a few words, and they are trying to understand. Too late, let them play, they are already full of sand. Deerfield Beach, Florida

This is the beach in front of the Turtle Beach Hotel at Dover... but it is not the beach commonly known as "Dover beach".... the "old" beach has been been broken up into sections with the use of boulders, creating several beaches.... and preventing all but the most daring beach walkers from getting along the coastline.
