We visited Cupsogue Beach on the west end of Westhampton Island on a warm day in February for a lovely afternoon of ocean, sand, and seals. I’ve lived in New York State my entire life and when I want to go to the beach, I never think of Long Island. That was a mistake I will not be repeating.
We parked our car once the road got too rough to drive on, and walked the rest of the way. The road wound past bee boxes, two beaches, with the blue Aegean flanking your right field of vision the entire way. The road turned around a bend and that was when we saw it. The Drakano Tower stood out starkly against the bright blue sky. We finally made it!
When the plane touched down, my husband and I found ourselves in a Tolkien-esque environment, with jaw dropping cliff faces, blue ocean all around us, and the sun shining bright. It was our first time visiting the Faroe Islands, this gorgeous group of islands in the North Atlantic between Iceland and Scotland. The Faroes are populated with fishermen, captains, the most lovely, down to earth, salty people, and sheep. We had one of the best travel experiences of our lives here.
Perfect white pebbles and clear blue water. That is what you are in for when you visit the Seychelles Beach along the southern coast of Ikaria, Greece. For anyone looking for the idyllic Greek beach to see while they are on vacation, this is the place to visit.
