The sea does not reward those who are too anxious, too greedy, or too impatient. One should lie empty, open, choiceless as a beach – waiting for a gift from the sea….Anne Morrow Lindbergh
For those of us north of the Equator summer is just around the corner and I am dreaming of those lazy, summer days at the beach. For the rest of you, you just had your summer but we will let you dream along with us too.
Some of the most beautiful beaches in the world are in the Bahamas. The further away from Nassau and the other touristy ares the better.
My personal favorite beaches are on Cat Island, pop 1700, one of the many Out Islands of the Bahamas.
I hope you have enjoyed a day at the beach with me.
More of my Cat Island images can be found here.
