A Beautiful British Beach: Porthcurno West Cornwall
This quick stop at Porthcurno West Cornwall was just long enough to take in the sight of one of the UK’s prettiest beaches. The photographs really don’t do it justice, to see it in person with the sun shining was like looking at a photo from the Mediterranean, the colour and sparkle of the water against […]

Literally on the lower end of St Lawrence Gap, Barbados with more nice blue seas and soft sand, and plenty of shade. Dover beach seemed a bit more relaxed and quieter than Accra beach (which is off a busier main road).
