Beach Huts

I had a little time to kill before an appointment this morning so I went down to the beach. Love the primary colours of these old wooden bathing huts.

Choppy Seas

While I wasn't expecting the perfect weather we had last week I was surprised at how cool and windy the beach was this morning. It didn't look like very good swimming weather at all but we went in anyway and it was actually pretty nice.

Morning Swim

I'm really enjoying my weekly swims this summer. It's well worth making an early start and getting down to the beach before the crowds and traffic get bad. Today was glorious.

Boat

Spent an excellent morning at Long Beach. The swimming was superb, and there was a bit of cloud around so it wasn't too hot. Days like this make me like summer.

Aegean

A full day of sightseeing ended with a visit to the beach. The sea is super for swimming, and I am fully behind sun loungers and trees on the beach.

Paddling

After the work conference ended today I went for a stroll on the beach and around the lagoon. Mmm, nice to get my feet wet in the cool clear water.
