The Most Stunning Place in the World In San Juan, Puerto Rico as anyone steps off a cruise ship they are met with the cool air of the shop you are about to step into. The salty ocean air, and what seem to be like tiny houses built on the water, with massive industry machinery directly beside, behind, and all around these houses. As you walk through all the shops there are tons of American commodities for a fraction of the price, or at least that is what they told us. There are booths with alcohol samples, shoes, hair products, and so much more. As you finally free yourself from the other passengers of the ship the hot humid air almost hits you in the face. Walking along the streets there are beautiful parks that are not vandalized or …show more content…
You find stairs that seem to lead no where, but it is so far from no where it could almost be called Heaven in Puerto Rico. Walking down the concrete stairs, you begin to smell the salty ocean air again, and the cool crisp wind that blows up skirts of unsuspecting girls. Continuing down the stairs when you have climbed down the first flight there is a flat balcony of sorts that you can see what you have been smelling, but it is unlike anything you have ever seen. The ocean tides hitting the rocks and flying upward, with ocean as far as the eye can see. This sight will send your steps into overdrive to reach the bottom, and feel the sand on your feet and ocean air on your face. At the bottom, the wind blows away everything feeling, but pure infiltrated excitement. The tiny little sand particles in between your toes as you walk along the beach and the cool refreshing water coming up just to greet your feet. The foam of the sea washes back into the ocean just as a new wave is finding its way over the tall rocks and up to the sand, and slowly dancing over your feet. A place where there is no worry, no fear, but only stunned at how beautiful this uncrowded and peaceful place that is hidden just yards away from the hustle and bustle of the city streets. Rocks that are taller than any man, but the water bangs into them as if the are ants, and slowly roll over them. The waves making its way to the sand, washing up shells, and taking sand with it. As you stand
The smell of the salty sea delight my lungs as it crashed into the rocks with all its might. As I sit on the cliff top looking over the valley I see my father giving his swimming lessons to my sisters, as my fearful mother shriek at them to come back to the beach.
My most wanted place to be calms me from the inside of my soul to the outside of feet. Always giving me a pretty sight to see, no matter it be day or night because the temperature always feels so right. I love the way the sand feels between my toes, almost losing control slipping beneath. Hearing the wave’s crash on the shoreline is so soothing to me sounding musically and symphonically. I can look so far out, it helps me to get all my thoughts out. The water ready to immerse all of me, and I can let it all go. Let the pain go, and all my anger drives the tide trying to pull me away.
As I walk onto the white-sanded beach my fears vanish. The ocean breeze sweeps away my fears and carries them out to sea. The heavy stress that I carry on my aching back and my gut wrenching worries fade away into the glistening morning sun, it casts a shadow of the things that I leave behind as I walk toward the ocean. The fully loaded anxiety that fills my body slowly dumps like oil into ice cold water. And all that is left is the overwhelming feeling of complete relaxation.
You look around and all you see is mother nature's finest. The beach is where people go to have fun and that’s why I go to this one special beach, because you get a little of everything there. You get wild life, the ocean, and pure silence. The only thing you can hear is the ocean waves crashing onto the beach, reminds me of Niagara falls. Its breathtaking. And everything is clean. No trash laying around at all. Nothing.
My toes wiggling in the damp golden sand. The salty air invading my nostrils. Ocean waves are crashing up against the shore and receding back into the deep blue waters. The ultraviolet rays of the sun are heating my pale skin. William and the boys are building a large sandcastle. They cover the gleaming turrets with slimy brown seaweed and pristine white shells. The rolling hills to my right are a dark shade of green, having been healthily watered by the summer showers. Small feathery clouds move steadily through the gleaming blue limitless
The rushing wind blows a scent of sea salt across my body, tickling my nose and awakening my senses. Slowly my eyes open to absorb the beauty of the morning sky, which is delicately speckled with poignant white cotton balls. A loud snore can be heard from the main room of the apartment, while the stilled breathing of my brother drones on. Carefully, I crawl out from my bed exiting the guest room and making my way slowly across the tiny apartment. My entire family lays across the main floor in a tangled mess of inflated beds and plush blankets. I traverse the maze with a multitude of leaps and bounds until I make contact with the porch door; which I slide through with relief. Standing within the square enclosure the turquoise tinted water greets me with beauty and graciousness. Even from the
Day two on the journey that will lead to the triangle. The winds yet to cease, and we zip along on this two week journey. Walking along the edge of the boat, the familiar smell of salt fills my lungs. I put my hands behind my back and walk to the bow of the ship. Standing there, I look ahead. It seems like I’m floating above the water, traveling at speeds beyond the human capability. I walk back under the deck into the stuffy, warm, room that I share.
Gulf Shores is the beautiful beach I have ever been to. When I go to Gulf Shores I smell the delicious seafood when I go to the restaurants. When I walked around the beach I smell the nasty seaweed around the sand. When I am at the beach I touch the small, white, pretty seashells and put them in a bucket to keep them. As I walk around the beach, my toes are touching the soft, grained sand between my toes. I can taste the dirty salt water when I am swimming in the ocean. When I go inside The Oyster House I can taste the amazing seafood into my mouth and wanted more food. When I am relaxing at the beach I can hear the waves crashing each other. I can hear people talking, screaming, and playing their loud music. In the evening time, I saw the
Ocean water mist kissed my face gently as I walked along the shore of Isle de Padre in Seal Beach, California. Soft and grainy sand slipped between my toes, which was an odd sensation, but not unpleasant. The sun wasn’t shining and the wind began to pick up, causing my braids to whip around my face in a frenzied manner. I loved it. In the spring of my thirteenth year, I made I trip I will never forget. This trip made me feel alive, and as long as I live, I will always associate Isle de Padre with life.
The sand scorches our feet like steaks on a fiery grill. I had brought the Rock along to join me for a surfing lesson. We snatch our wetsuits and our boards and hit the waves. The second the ocean water hits my feet, it sends a chilling sensation through my entire body. The polar water on this hot day feels like a steamy shower after a long chilly day, calming and relaxing. The waves are monstrous and intimidating, however, I seem to ride them effortlessly like I had done it a million times before. I dash past the Rock and ride under a curling wave. Hidden in the waves are vibrantly colored fish swimming in schools. The water is translucent, so much that one can simply look at the ocean floor, and see the coral and seaweed that is
The moment I disembark from the cool conditioned ferry the heat engulfed my face and curled around the rest of my body; after a lengthy hour airplane journey and an hour ferry ride I was separated from the continent by a hostile saltwater barrier and introduced to the Galapagos Islands.
The strong slaps of waves against the slippery rocks along the shore. The mountains of seashells tower over me. The sand between my toes feels rough and grainy.
Its cold, windy, and sunny all at the same time. The beach stretches for miles seeming endless, until it reaches a tall cliff with waves crashing against it. The sun shines down on the moisture in the air creating a “sparkling” affect to add to the view. In some spots on the coast giant rock formations stick out of the water, creating a question on how they formed there. Sea creatures dot the sand everywhere. Walking the beach with sand between your toes is and not a worry in your mind is one of the best feelings. If you time it right early in the mornings and late in the night low tide takes place and you can find sand dollars and unique shells. Beautiful houses and hotels line the beach all with the same withered look they all strive to have, and balconies on every place to capture the view.
The place where I feel most comfortable is a place where I am calm. A place that is peaceful in its own ways. It is the place to go to get away from all my troubles. It is the one place where I could sit forever, and never get tired of just staring into the deepest blue I have ever seen. It is the place where I can sit and think the best. A place where nothing matters but what is in that little moment. The one place capable of sending my senses into an overload. This place is the ocean.
I can remember the day clearly as if it were yesterday. The sand covering my feet was shining brightly with resilient sunlight. The tides crashed gently against the sand as if caressing it. The wind carried on casually; at times I felt no breeze at all, as if the wind itself stopped for a second to enjoy the relaxing scene. This day marked the beginning of our annual family beach journeys.
