Here's where the beach is located:

The origin of the name “Barbados” is somewhat controversial. The Portuguese, on their way to Brazil or the Spanish, are credited with being the first Europeans to choose the name for the island.
The name Barbados is said to derive from the Portuguese term os barbados (the bearded ones), given to the island in 1536 by Portuguese explorer Pedro A. Campos because the long, hanging aerial roots of the bearded fig trees (Ficus citrifolia), native to the island, looked like “beards.” The name the Arawak natives gave to the island was Ichirouganaim.

Yes, it's true, there are a horde of cruise passengers: but they don't bother me at all!

Spiagge da sogno: Devil’s Bay a Virgin Gorda

Spiagge da sogno: Devil’s Bay a Virgin Gorda nelle Isole Vergini.
Quando sono imbarcato sulla nave raramente esco e, ancora più raramente, vado in escursione.
Ma lo scorso anno, con mia moglie a bordo e con le belle escursioni a disposizione, mi sono tolto anche qualche sfizio e sono andato un pio di volte.
In queste foto fi faccio vedere quanto era bella la spiaggia chiamata Devil’s Bay nella isola di Virgin Gorda.
E’ all’interno di un piccolo parco naturale e raggiungibile attraverso un sentiero e poi passando in alcune grotte naturali scavate dal mare.
Non credo abbia bisogno di molte parole questa spiaggia “da sogno’!

Mare da sogno: la costa dell’isola di Bonaire

Mare da sogno: la costa vicino al porto dell’isola di Bonaire.
A dire la verità non sono proprio le foto di un mare da sogno, o comunque non nei comuni sogni perchè la barriera corallina la fa da padrone.
Qui si deve affittare una barca, superare la barriera e poi sì che si può approfittare di un mare da sogno.

Dream Beaches: Carlisle Bay in Barbados

Spiagge da sogno: la iconica baia di Carlisle Bay a Barbados

Dream beaches: the iconic Carlisle Bay in Barbados.
Last year, around this time, I was about to leave for the Caribbean by ship and arrive in these dream places.
One of my favorites is without a doubt the island of Barbados with this beautiful cove called Carlisle Bay with Bebbles Beach.
Yes, I admit, I used the HDR function of the Gopro which emphasizes the colors a lot but don't think that the reality is very different.
Watch the videos below if you don't believe me!

La vista di Roseau capitale della Dominica, piccola isola nei Caraibi

La vista di Roseau capitale della Dominica, piccola isola nei Caraibi.
La scorsa stagione sono stato con la nave un paio di volte in questa piccola isola dei Caraibi.
A dire la verità quello che c’è nella foto è anche tutto quello che ho visto io dell’isola: solo il panorama che si vede dalla nave.
Purtroppo non sono mai riuscito ad uscire!
Un “to do” per le prossime stagioni.

La Dominica, ufficialmente Commonwealth della Dominica (in inglese Commonwealth of Dominica), è uno stato insulare del Mar dei Caraibi, Repubblica parlamentare all’interno del Commonwealth con capitale la città di Roseau. Appartenente all’arcipelago delle Piccole Antille, l’isola è situata a metà strada tra le isole della Guadalupa e della Martinica. Contrariamente ad altre ex-colonie della regione, la Dominica non è mai stata un reame del Commonwealth con il monarca britannico come capo di Stato: divenne infatti una repubblica al momento dell’indipendenza.

Dream sea: the beautiful Pointe Marin on the island of Martinique.

Unfortunately, on that day, the sky was quite cloudy but the transparent water and the sand, made up of thousands of pieces of crushed shells, were truly unforgettable.
