“The three great elemental sounds in nature are the sound of rain,
the sound of wind in a primeval wood, and the sound of outer ocean on a beach”
- Henry Beston -
Cuban beaches. How can I describe them? They are simply magnificent. And the 21 kilometers (13 miles) of almost uninterrupted beach in Varadero, the area we stayed in, is unforgettable.
Take a look...
Sparkling clean
Powder white sand
Tranquil, turquoise water
Magical
One of the best destinations in the Caribbean
And 330 sunny days per year to enjoy it all

Have a beautiful day, everyone.
Ooh, the water looks *so* clear!! Love the beautiful blue sky and the sand as well! And I never dreamt I'd be thinking Cuba looks like such a neat vacation spot! Looks like you both had a great time!
ReplyDeleteIt was wonderful. I am happy to be home but I really miss the beach. It is so beautiful.
DeleteGorgeous beaches, and look at that blue sky! I can almost smell the salt in the air from here. You guys look so much happy! Great pics!
ReplyDeleteThere is no way you can't be happy in that type of setting. I don't miss the heat and humidity, but I do miss the beach and my daily swim!
DeleteYou both look so happy and absolutely relaxed! Next trip Cuba for sure.
