Fishing Boats in Turquoise Waters of Mirabello Bay

I’m in love with this area of Crete. Who needs to go to the Caribbean when you can come here. Take a trip over the twisty, mountain road from Agios Nikolaos to the coast between Elounda (Ελούντα) and Plaka (Πλάκα). Stroll along the promenade, enjoy the turquoise waters of Mirabello Bay, and maybe go for a dip in the sea.

The scenery is stunning and ever-changing along this Mediterranean seascape. Colourful, traditional fishing boats are moored off stone jetties, with the uninhabited island of Kalydon (Καλυδών) as a backdrop.

You have memories of your visit to Elounda or Plaka, or dream of visiting one day? What about a picture for your wall or desk, or a jigsaw puzzle, coffee mug or duvet cover? Many ideas for gifts for a loved one.

Turquoise Paradise

When visiting breathtakingly beautiful Bonaire, you just have to explore the island. Drive south along the amazing coastal route or directly across country to the south east from the colourful capital Kralendijk to the turquoise waters and overwhelming nature of Lac Bay. Enjoy paradise on earth at Sorobon Beach at the far end of the small peninsula.

Dip your toes into the wonderfully warm, turquoise waters. Go swimming, paddling or windsurfing. The lagoon is protected by the sandbanks from the Atlantic Ocean and often shallow enough to stand.

Waterfront Bliss in Key Biscayne

I drove over the impressive Rickenbacker Causway from Miami on the Florida coast to explore the barrier island of Key Biscayne (Spanish: Cayo Vizcaíno) with its beautiful beaches, secluded private moorings and luxury villas.

I could well imagine sitting back on the deck or in the gazebo of my waterfront home, with my yacht moored out front and my golf cart parked alongside my limousine in the garage, enjoying the view across the turquoise waters of Hurricane Harbor Bay. Far beyond this idyllic, peaceful scene, the contrasting skyscrapers and skyline of Downtown Miami are just visible on the horizon. It is a lifestyle I could get used to.

Chrysi Island Paradise

I’m in love with Crete and its fascinating history and culture. The people are so welcoming and generous. The food is often simple yet healthy and delicious. And my photographer’s eye has so much to feast on too:-)

If you visit and have time to travel to the south east, take a boat trip from Ierapetra across to the uninhabited Chrissi Island, in the Libyan Sea just south of Crete. You’ll be knocked out by its untouched beauty, rugged lava coast, golden sandy beaches and stunning turquoise waters. This hidden gem is a Mediterranean paradise just waiting to be explored.

Chrysi, Chrissi or Chrisi from Greek Χρυσή

In the Blue Lagoon

On a visit to the fascinating island of Malta I set off for the day on a boat’s tour from Valletta to explore the neighbouring isles of Gozo and Comino.

The Blue Lagoon on Comino island is famous not only for its amazing turquoise waters but also because scenes from the film of the same name were recorded here. It most definitely lives up to its name.
Perfect for swimming or simply chilling with a cocktail on the beach, especially late in the day when most tourists have left.

Of course, as well as taking lots of fab photos, I couldn’t resist bathing in the crystal clear waters too:-)

Crystal Blue Balos Vista

Jump into the clear blue waters off the shore of the captivating island of Balos with views over the Aegean to the Cretan mountains. The pristine turquoise sea creates and this idyllic panorama are truly Greek in spirit. A popular spot for visitors to the north west of Crete, just a short boat ride from Kissamos.

I love taking photos like this while swimming with my waterproof Olympus Tough cam.

Caribbean Kite-Surfing Paradise

Experience the thrill of the kite surfer’s paradise at Atlantis Beach, Bonaire, one of the ABC islands in the Dutch Caribbean. Surfers from all over the world glide across the crystal-clear turquoise waters against that stunning tropical backdrop.

Beachlovers sit back on those pink sands and enjoy the view, feeling the rush of the Atlantic winds in their hair.

Caribbean Feeling

Pure paradise for snorkelling or swimming in the turquoise waters or chilling with a cocktail, the warm, golden sand between your toes.

The pretty beach at Playa Lagun in a small cove on the colourful island of Curaçao is often crowded at the weekend but during the week it is a peaceful haven. Dutch Caribbean.

On the Edge of the World

Or so it feels, when you look out over those turquoise Mediterranean waters and colossal cliffs from El Pilar de la Mola.

The charming Balearic Island of Formentera is only reachable by ferry from Ibiza or by your own private yacht:-) There is no airport.

But it is well worth it. Not just for this view from its highest plateau near the Mola lighthouse but for its amazing turquoise waters, gorgeous sandy beaches and its unique flair.

Locals’ View of the White Beaches

When approaching the famous White Beaches on the coastal road from the south you will be greeted by views like this. Before driving a few hundred yards to scenes like this. Isle of Harris, Outer Hebrides, Scotland.

A small flock of local sheep on the hillside above Taransay Bay who enjoy this spectacular view across one of the beaches to the village of Luskentyre and the Harris hills beyond every day. Not sure if they appreciate it like I do LOL.

Turquoise Paradise

Breathe in that magnificent sea air and take an invigorating walk along the amazing Tràigh Mhòr beach.

2 miles of fine, golden sand with a view across the Minch and the Atlantic. If the sun is right you’ll get Caribbean turquoise waters like this as a reward. But remember it may rain, just as it did this day shortly afterwards.

Located near the hamlet of Tolsta, north of Stornoway on the east coast of the island.

Blue Lagoon

It is even more breathtaking when you stand there on the shore ready to dive into the turquoise depths of the breathtaking Blue Lagoon on the Maltese island of Comino. A magnificent place for a swim, especially late in the day when most tourists have gone.

Better than any swimming pool! And yes they recorded part of the film with same name here:-)

Reachable on boat trips from Malta and Gozo.
