The quiet place

                                              The coves

Many places have unique little coves, where only a few people know of and go for dog walking, or just a nice walk on a summers day. 3 years ago I found the most amazing coves in England. With 3 lovely green fields, with wooden steps, going down to the beach, is where the coves are hidden. Over looking, hole of the bay. I mainly go here walking my 2 dogs, however it has become more of an adventure on my own, walking around these coves, as each time I visit the coves, I find new things there and more unique little quite areas around it. No matter what the weather is like, I still enjoy just being there, looking at the amazing views, and just being near the sea, breathing and feeling the pure fresh air. There are a few houses near by to these coves, and always wonder how it would be like living so close, to one of my favourite places to go to. A step away from almost paradise.

The beach its self, isn't all nice, as its mainly pebble/shingle beach, with a lot of rock pools, however its still a wonderful place to visit. If you like climbing rocks, then this is defiantly where you should head out to. Although the beach its self is not great, will never put me off from going there almost once a week. The water there is always so calm, making it more of an relaxing place. Looking out from to the distance, boats/ships sailing. As its in England the water is a tad on the freezing side, although with them heat waves, always a nice cool down. Once in the sea you find its smooth, soft sand, between your feet. Not much rocks just you, sand and sea.

Would love one day, maybe in the summer to go kayaking there. Setting off from the coves and just sail around, looking at the coves from a different view. Would be amazing.
Everyone has there quiet, relaxation place where they like to go. These coves near by to me happen to be mine.

No matter where life takes me, I will always return to these coves.

Whitehaven Beach

Whitehaven beach found on the island called Whitsundays, near Queensland Australia.


The place so quiet, all you can hear are the waves, and the sound of your feet touching the soft, crunchy sand, as you walk along it. 'Experience OZ' rate Whitehaven beach number 1 beach in Australia, stating its the 'most beautiful beach in Australia.' 
Whitehaven is the dream place to be, for relaxation. Nothing, but you and the ocean. As you can see from photos, Whitehaven beach got its name, from the incredible white sand. The sand is to be known as siclia. Siclia is a substance that is contained in an extremely high-purity form of sand, with extremely fine grains that make it very soft to the touch and also prevent it from getting too hot underfoot, having endless sunshine down on it the colour of the sand is an almost pure-white colour that forms an amazing contrast to the vivid blue of the waters that lap at the beach and contributes to sheer magic of Whitehaven. You will see nothing quite like it anywhere else. However the sand is not just the wow factor on this island. The ocean is it's clearest. Pure clear sea, with the beautiful reef surrounding the island.

The beach stretches up to 7KM along the coast, meaning that even in peak seasons it will rarely be crowded enough to ruin the atmosphere, however with climate change, how long will Whitehaven last is unknown.
Whitehaven beach should defiantly be on you're bucket list , you'd think it was something put together in a studio for a magazine shoot - it's simply that "perfect.
