Arher Beach

Arher Beach is where cliffs come down to sea level and white sand dunes are formed along its front. The dunes are just back from the water line. These are active dunes, being reshaped by the wind, especially during the windy season. The road runs along the seaward foot of the dunes and has to be dug out at least once a year.
The 1st 3 pictures are different views of the dunes with the cliffs behind. Today has been mostly cloudy. So some pictures look like black and white. Pictures 4-6 turn the other way and look from the dunes to the sea.
The cliffs add more to the picture. Fresh water flows off the cliffs and streams to the sea. The next 2 pictures look at one of these places. I'm guessing that this spring is in that cave, flows down into the greenery creating the surface water that flows out across the beach.
Pictures 8&9 are views of Arher Beach itself.
Quite near Archer Beach is the eastern end of the island where the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean meet. There is active fishing community here who bring their boats in every evening. They are arriving in the 10th picture. The 11th picture is a "sculpture" near the eastern point. Those are whale shark bones arranged by an unknown artist. The last picture looks off the eastern point. To the left is the Arabian Sea; to the right is the Indian Ocean.
This is a beautiful place.Leggi altro
