Thousands of starfish

stelle marine

These cute mollusks filled the beach at my holiday village in the Red Sea. They really made an impression! they were a significantly reduced sized (the above photo is an enlargement) there were thousands of them and they moved where the water was about 5-6 cm deep.

They almost scared me… I was afraid of crushing them all when I was walking!! (I have to say that they stunk a bit too)

Red Sea - flat horizon

orizzonte del mar rosso

Yes, this is the type of horizon that you could admire on a trip at the Red Sea… I don’t know about you guys, but I prefer the snowy mountains and green fields of Austria ;)

Although I have to admit that the photo is quite fascinating. Three lines, the golden sand, the cobalt blue of the sea and a light blue that are lost on the horizon interrupted only by the outline of far away mountains.

That place was deserted, and enormous. It’s weird because you could easily go swimming, it was so warm…! Yes, a true paradise for the sun-lovers.

Stara Baska

Stara Baska

Croatia has been in style again lately. Since it is so close to Italy, either by land or by sea, is becoming a good alternative to Italy. Maybe for the beautiful, uncontaminated beaches that characterize it, or for the prices that are still favorable to the demands of many Italian zones, even though they are higher every year.

In the above photo you can see the beautiful Stara Baska Sea, an antique fishing village that’s very small in size but charming, on the island of Krk (the italianized name, L’Isola di Veglia (The Half Asleep Island). The place is really beautiful, whether for the sea or for the vegetation ( ginestre flowers, etc). The town is really small, but you can still find 2-3 restaurants to eat very well at prices that are even more affordable!
