Beach Hopping and Sea Swimming.

Living on an island is not all bad - we have the most amazing beaches! Lately the weather in Guernsey has been lovely and warm and so we have been going to the beach a lot to make the most of it. Growing up close to so many beaches means it is easy to take for granted the ability to just go and sunbathe on the sand or have a swim in the sea. However after being at university in England for a year I have come to appreciate my beautiful island a whole lot more! 

Today I went down to a little beach called Petit Bot with my parents for a swim in the sea. It was very cold but I'm proud to say I put my head underwater and swam out to a rock and back!


We then went on to another gorgeous beach called L'eree where we sat with our backs against the hot granite wall.



The sunset was absolutely stunning this evening - the colours were amazing and the clouds just added interest to the sky. (Sorry this photo isn't better quality... I took it in the car as we were driving home!)


I am looking forward to spending lots of time on the beach with my friends and family this summer - having BBQs, eating fish and chips, building sandcastles (no you're never too old), going surfing, jumping off rocks/walls/groins into the sea, playing beach games, watching the sun set...

Hopefully we'll have the weather for it!
