这个神奇的海滩值得一游 This magical beach is worth the hike

Seitan Limania beach, Crete

Crete is the largest and most populous of all the Greek islands, and also the farthest from the mainland (in fact, it's just about halfway to Turkey). This big little island is small enough to drive across in a few hours but full of wonders from mountain ranges to gorges to beautiful beaches. Take this jewel box of turquoise water near the port city of Chania for example. 'Set on the easternmost of three peninsulas that stick out like horns from the northwestern shoreline of Crete, Seitan Limania is one of the most photographed beaches on the island.

Seitan Limania is 'beautiful to behold from a distance but driving up close via the narrow switchback roads takes some nerve. And once you get to the parking lot, the rocky hike down is for only the most surefooted of beachgoers. On your way down, you'll likely meet some of the goats that populate the area. 'The narrow cove is flanked by steep rock walls that zig one way, then zag the other. When you reach the beach, you'll find yourself on one of the most unique spots on any coast—and a selfie here at Seitan Limania is hard to beat for bragging rights.

塞坦利马尼亚海滩，克里特岛

克里特岛是所有希腊岛屿中最大、人口最多的岛屿，也是离大陆最远的岛屿（事实上，它距离土耳其只有一半）。这个大大小小的岛屿很小，可以在几个小时内驾车穿过，但充满了从山脉到峡谷到美丽海滩的奇观。以港口城市查尼亚附近的绿松石水珠宝盒为例塞坦利马尼亚位于克里特岛西北海岸线三个半岛的最东端，这些半岛像角一样突出，是岛上拍照最多的海滩之一。

Seitan Limania“从远处看很美，但在狭窄的弯道上近距离开车需要一些勇气。”。一旦你到了停车场，只有最踏实的海滩游客才可以进行岩石徒步旅行。在你下山的路上，你很可能会遇到一些山羊，它们栖息在这个地区狭窄的海湾两侧是陡峭的岩壁，这些岩壁一路弯曲，另一路弯曲。当你到达海滩时，你会发现自己是任何海岸上最独特的景点之一，在Seitan Limania的自拍是很难被吹嘘的。

太平洋的波涛

Sand, sun, and sk8ers

Walk the busy boardwalk of Venice Beach, in Los Angeles, and you'll see more sailing past than distant yachts—like an endless stream of skateboarders whizzing by within inches, always seeming to dodge you and your snow cone at the last second. Wanna bet they're headed to this world-famous skatepark right on the beach?

First poured in 2009 and serving locals, tourists, and pros alike ever since, Venice Skatepark's three bowls are usually brimming with skilled skaters—and visitors crowding the railings hoping to spy sick tricks. It's an appropriate setting for a top-notch skate spot: Bustling SoCal beaches like Venice were the birthplace of skateboarding, invented by bored surfers who wanted to cruise the land on days when waves were weak.

沙子、阳光和滑雪道

走在洛杉矶威尼斯海滩繁忙的木板路上，你会看到比远处的游艇更多的帆船驶过，就像无数的滑板运动员在几英寸之内呼啸而过，总是在最后一秒闪避你和你的雪球。想打赌他们会去海滩上这个世界著名的滑板公园吗？

威尼斯滑板公园的三个碗从2009年开始，为当地人、游客和专业人士提供服务。从那以后，威尼斯滑板公园的三个碗里通常挤满了熟练的滑板手和游客，他们挤满了栏杆，希望窥探恶心的把戏。这是一个适合顶级滑板场地的环境：像威尼斯这样熙熙攘攘的索卡尔海滩是滑板运动的发源地，滑板运动是无聊的冲浪者发明的，他们想在海浪弱的日子在陆地上冲浪。

Whatever floats your boat

These turquoise waters are lapping the sands of Mont Choisy Beach in Mauritius, an island nation off the southeastern coast of Africa. It's a popular spot for locals and tourists to swim, enjoy the sun, or head out in one of these boats to catch some fish. The island has a unique cultural history. Most scholars believe it was known to Arab seafarers by the 10th century but it remained uninhabited until Portuguese sailors established a base on the island in the early 1500s. Mauritius was later colonized in succession by the Netherlands, France, and Great Britain before gaining independence in 1968. Over the years, Mauritius has evolved from a low-income economy based mostly on sugarcane (still one of its biggest exports), to a more diverse one that includes tourism, clothing production, and technology.

随心所欲

这些绿松石色的海水拍打着非洲东南海岸岛国毛里求斯的蒙崔西海滩的沙滩。对于当地人和游客来说，这是一个很受欢迎的地方，他们可以游泳，享受阳光，或者乘坐这些船去钓鱼。这个岛有着独特的文化历史。大多数学者认为，阿拉伯海员在10世纪就知道了这座岛屿，但直到15世纪初葡萄牙水手在岛上建立了基地，它才被发现。后来，毛里求斯先后被荷兰、法国和英国殖民统治，1968年获得独立。多年来，毛里求斯已从一个以甘蔗为主的低收入经济体（仍然是其最大的出口产品之一）发展成为一个更加多样化的经济体，包括旅游业、服装生产和技术。

An island hopper's paradise

Welcome to the sunny and sultry Seychelles, a tropical island nation just south of the equator in the Indian Ocean, roughly 900 miles off the eastern coast of Africa. The gorgeous beach you see here is the Anse Source d'Argent on the island of La Digue, one of 115 islands that make up this tropical republic. Anse Source d'Argent has long been a favorite of photographers, who are drawn to its contoured, dark granite boulders, pristine white sand, and turquoise-colored water. Beachcombers and sun worshippers also flock to the Seychelles because of the islands' consistently great weather—daily high temperatures almost always stay within a comfortable range of between 75 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit all year round.

Most any day is a day worth celebrating in the Seychelles, but today is cause for double celebration: June 29 is Independence Day in the Seychelles, commemorating the nation's 1976 independence from centuries of colonial rule under the French and British. It also happens to be the UN's International Day of the Tropics, a day of special recognition for the Seychelles and other locales within the zone between the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. That accounts for about 36% of Earth's land mass and close to 40% of its population. The intent of International Day of the Tropics is twofold: as a celebration of the extraordinary diversity of this zone while also highlighting the challenges facing the region, like poverty, climate change, deforestation, urbanization, and demographic shifts.

岛上的天堂

欢迎来到阳光明媚、闷热的塞舌尔，这是一个热带岛国，位于印度洋赤道以南，距非洲东海岸约900英里。你在这里看到的美丽海滩是位于拉迪格岛上的安塞岛，它是组成这个热带共和国的115个岛屿之一。安塞源d'Argent一直是摄影师的最爱，他们被它的轮廓，黑色花岗岩巨石，原始的白色沙子，和绿松石色的水所吸引。由于塞舌尔群岛持续的好天气，海滩梳洗者和太阳崇拜者也蜂拥而至，每天的高温几乎全年都保持在75到90华氏度的舒适范围内。

在塞舌尔，任何一天都是值得庆祝的日子，但今天都是值得双重庆祝的日子：6月29日是塞舌尔的独立日，纪念1976年塞舌尔从法国和英国统治下几个世纪的殖民统治中独立出来。这一天恰巧是联合国的国际热带日，塞舌尔和其他位于北回归线和摩羯座之间地区的地区受到特别的表彰。占地球陆地面积的36%，人口的40%。国际热带日的目的有两个：一是庆祝该地区的非凡多样性，同时也强调该地区面临的挑战，如贫困、气候变化、毁林、城市化和人口变化。

Summer huts in winter

We're getting chilly just looking at these snow-covered beach huts in England—and that cyclist slogging through the white stuff. But in the summer, these huts in Brighton and Hove (neighboring towns that share a local government) are in major demand. You can't stay in them overnight, but they give you a place to change your clothes and stash your belongings, which makes a day at the beach less messy and generally more pleasant. The seaside resort area is also known for attractions like Brighton Palace Pier, which offers rides and fast food, and the i360 tower, which takes visitors 450 feet up for a 360-degree view across Brighton, the South Downs, and English Channel.

冬季夏季小屋

我们刚看到英格兰的这些积雪覆盖的海滩小屋，和骑自行车的人在白色的东西中艰难前行，就觉得很冷。但到了夏天，布莱顿和霍夫（与当地政府合用的邻近城镇）的这些棚屋需求量很大。你不能在里面过夜，但他们会给你一个地方换衣服和存放物品，这会让你在沙滩上的一天不那么凌乱，总体上也会更愉快。海滨度假区也以景点而闻名，如布莱顿宫码头，提供乘车和快餐，i360塔，游客可以在450英尺高的地方360度俯瞰布莱顿、南唐斯和英吉利海峡。

Feel the spray in Monterey

Fantasizing about warm, sandy beaches with gently lapping waves? Well, we decided you could use a shake-up—so here we are in Monterey County, California, for a glimpse at the ocean's raw, unadulterated power. Asilomar State Beach's mile-long coastline trail offers views like this one of seas crashing on jagged shores. Below the frothy surface swim innumerable ocean organisms protected by the massive Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, the largest marine preserve in the contiguous United States. Behind us, a rich dune habitat supporting its own delicate flora and fauna can be explored via a boardwalk trail.

It's Bermuda's big day

We're gazing down at Marley Beach on the southwest coast of Bermuda in honor of Bermuda Day, a public holiday celebrated near the end of May. The event was first established on this British island territory in 1902, to honor the late Queen Victoria's birthday, but it has evolved into a celebration of the culture. Since 2018, it's been observed on the last Friday of May. Locals celebrate the end of winter on this day with a swim or boat ride. Today's holiday also marks the date when islanders transition to a summer wardrobe at work. For the next several months, Bermuda shorts, which hit just above the knee, will be considered appropriate business attire for the island's most dapper gentlemen.
