Praia do Sancho, Fernando de Noronha, Brazil
Praia do Sancho, Fernando de Noronha, Brazil
Often voted Brazil's
best beach, Praia do Sancho is a bay on the island of Fernando de
Noronha, facing the coast of Brazil rather than out into the Atlantic
Ocean.
The archipelago has never been linked to the mainland. Geologically, it is the tip of a submarine volcanic formation which rises out of the deep seabed and consists of one main island and several rocks and islets. The rocks form many natural aquaria and the underwater life is diverse. Because the reefs of the South Atlantic are isolated from the Caribbean by the outflow of the Orinoco and Amazon rivers, the reef communities are very different with many endemic species.
Bathed by currents coming from Africa the waters around the islands are very clear with very good visibility even at 50 meters and have great year-round warm temperatures. Of course, you can also see the large “global” species such as manta rays, sharks, moray eels, goliath groupers, sea turtles and dolphins.
The island is also home to one of the largest sea bird breeding colonies in the South Atlantic.
Discovered by Amerigo Vespucci (1454-1512), Italian merchant and cartographer in 1503, the archipelago is 4 degrees south of the Equator, around 200 miles off the northeastern coast of Brazil, north east to the city of recife.
Falasarna Beach, Crete, Greece
Falassarna beach
The exotic beach of Falassarna is located 59km west of Chania and 17km west of Kissamos.
It’s located in the western part of Cape Gramvousa. At the northern end
of the beach are the ruins of the ancient Roman city of Falassarna.
Falassarna bay is one of the most famous
beaches in Greece, which has been awarded as the best beach of Crete
and one of the 10 best beaches in Europe in the past. Falasarna spans a
huge area and consists actually of five consecutive beaches, with the
two most central being the most favorite.
The sand in Falassarna is white, making
the water color tropical. Indeed, if you're lucky and be here on a day
that is not blowing from the west, rare in west Crete, you will be
enchanted by the beach and its turquoise waters.
The main beach of Falassarna is called Pacheia Ammos
(i..e Coarse Sand). It is an exotic beach with a length of 1km and a
width of 150m. This beach hosts the most visitors of the area, but
because of its length it never seems crowded. The beach offers umbrellas
and a few snack bars and cafes where you can get food and water. There
are also services for water sports and a beach volley court.
There is another long beach north
of the main beach having a length of 800m, identical to the main beach,
which is broken into several smaller beaches. This bay is divided in
half by a sand dune and a few rocks. The beach is more quiet than
Pacheia Ammos and offers no facilities. Nearby, there is the chapel of
Agia Paraskevi and a spring with fresh water.
Further north, near the archaeological
site, there is a small cove looking south. It is pebbly and the seabed
is rocky. It is a good choice when the winds blow from west or you seek
isolation. South of Pacheia Ammos, at Livadi, there is another long
beach that has sandy shore and rocky seabed. It is a very good choice
for fans of the snorkelling. Livadi is surrounded by a very important
wetland with ponds, which host many birds in winter. Even southern, near
the small harbor of Limeniskos settlement there is a small pebbly
beach, which is a good choice if you do not want to stay remote.
The
area around Falassarna is magnificent and is a Natura protected region.
If you have time and looking for something romantic, you can wait for
the sunset, which is considered the best in Crete. How could this not be
the best, when being in such an amazing landscape and there is no
obstacle between the beach the horizon? When it gets dark, you might be
lucky to visit one of the several beach partys organized in Falassarna
during summer. Specifically, the beach hosts the greatest beach party in
Crete on the first Saturday of August, with thousands of visitors. If
the first Saturday in August coincides with 1 / 8, then the party is
moved to 8 / 8.
One negative thing about Falasarna is
that it looks west and is usually wavy. However, this is desired by
windsurfers. There are also reports that the surrounding greenhouses
pollute the sea with fertilizers and trash, which, if being true, is a
real shame. If you do not have a mean to get in Falassarna, you can
catch the bus from Chania or Kissamos.
