A Perfect Morning .:. Sublime Sunday, or Surreal Sunday 😍
After a long time of bad weather, this morning, we finally saw a bit of that light from the end of the tunnel... I forgot when it began, but this 2026 was awful for Spain, especially for the part where I live... Relatively close, we had that terrible train accident, a lot of rain and floods around the country, and recently, strong winds pulling out trees, taking off roofs, and causing damage all around...
Just until yesterday, we had an orange warning for strong winds, and for the first time, I got that strange mobile message when it rings despite being on silent! Hopefully, you will not get something like that on your phone, as it usually means something dangerous is coming...
Speaking of wind, what you can see above is a direct result of its strength... Strong winds created big waves, which washed out the beach! Btw, what you can see in the bottom right is the border of the promenade where I was walking, and usually, from that point, until you reach the sea, you should walk around 20-30 meters... As you can see, the sea came close, just 2-3 meters from the promenade! The sand and the beach are gone! These water pipes are usually deep under the sea, and not like this...
Speaking of wind, some of the sand finished on the promenade too... This will probably be cleaned up during the day...
On the other side, the wind didn't make all uglier... Thanks to it, I think I made one of my best photos this year (at least to me 😃), which is what you see above... It does look like a scene from the movie Dune! 🙂
The city Calp is divided into 2 parts by a huge rock, Penyon de Ifach... Every part has its own beach, and the other one stayed almost intact from the wind and waves! Probably because of the direction in which it is situated, and the direction from where the waves and wind were coming...
So, if you want to get from one beach to another, and you like some "adventurous" path, you have to climb a bit on the rock, walk among trees and narrow paths, but the final views are rewarding!
Stunning views, aren't they? 😍 The sea is still uncalm, but far away from how it was just a couple of days ago, and the day before yesterday!
As we are closer and closer to the second beach, things are getting calmer and calmer...
It's amazing how big a difference there is between these two beaches! The one where waves dragged out all the sand, and this one, where everything looks normal! It's the same city, the same day, after the same severe weather conditions!
For the end, I kept a bit of Spring's signs in the air... As we had a lot of rain, everything is green, like never before!
Except for this pastry shop, which has the name of my favorite Spanish pastry! 😃 Well, I said it was a perfect Sunday... Almost perfect... Unfortunately, the pastry shop wasn't open in these early Sunday hours, but I'll be back! 😂
Thank you for your time.

I heard about that wind on our television news these days. Hope everyone and everything is fine and safe.
But hey, what a lovely nature all around. Sea, trees, greens 😍
I can't remember any of these 15 years of living in Spain with this much strong wind! A week ago, it was so strong that it literally stopped a guy who was riding a bike! Never saw something like that before... 😱
Hopefully, the weather will get better soon... Usually, February is the worst... Btw. are you coming to https://hiveopendays.com/? There are cheap flights from Belgrade... 😃

The rain here also stopped :)
Hallelujah! 😃 If that is what you wanted to happen... Not sure how much rain you had recently?
Bad weather can bring one's spirit low. It's nice the weather cleared up and you were able to step out and enjoy nature. Hope you'll have a great day.
!BBH
It is cloudy again today, but hopefully we will no longer have those crazy winds.
Have a great day too!! 🥂
The difference between the two beaches is really noticeable; it is almost like they are two separate worlds that are very close to each other ;)
The walk lasted around 1.5 hours, from there to back. At least, if you are living there, you can always find one beach that doesn't have big waves... 😃

It's too bad to hear about the bad weather, but you still got some nice pictures. Stay safe.
It was bad weather the previous days, but that day was just perfect! 😍
You took some beautiful pictures here... It's always terrifying yet fashionating what nature can do to the beaches (or anything else really)
That's where I go on holidays, trees ate by the sea
Oh, that looks awful! Most of the seaside here in Spain is either huge cliffs, or sand+rocks... Almost no vegetation near the shore... Which sucks... What you shared is probably great during the summer, as you have natural shade to hide from the strong sun...
I had 60-75 Km/h sustained winds this weekend. Was quite a blast... and gusts that went up to 193 Km/h!!!
Yup... it was similar here, but slightly "weaker" gusts... They said on the news that it was around 150 km/h, the max...
I think in the news here, they said that there was not gusts like this since 2013
still in the harsh winter season there, which causes a lots of illnesses and issues
I know that cold is sometimes good to "protect" you from some illnesses, but I don't like it at all... If I have to pick between constant sweating (from hot, sunny days), and having the flu and being in bed, I would choose sweating... 😂
I love that photo of the sea sand, looks so serene!
We underestimate the forces of nature; can get so fierce at times. Nice that you had such a lovely Sunday, but a bit alarming about the warning. I hope it calms down altogether @ph1102!
It is calming down, and I hope we will not have more of these orange warnings for winds this year... This was our 3rd, I think! I remember only once we had something like that in the last 15 years! And this time, 3! Enough is enough... 😃
Simply bravo!
Thank you! I'm glad you like it! 🥂
Looks nice. We have still minius degrees here in Berlin. But yesterday the sun came out for some moments
I'm freezing just thinking of minus degrees... 😃 I had engraved a memory of travelling when it was minus 25! Don't want to repeat that experience... 😂
1-2 months, and you will be out of winter too! At least you had some snow? It's nice when it's snowing...
Today some snow come back.
crazy what kind of weather you guys have been having over the last couple of weeks. My friend was there recently and she was also talking about snow being quite close?
I always thought winters in spain were easy going ;)
Not this year though! But wow...it already looks stunning for now again
I'm sorry to hear that your friend didn't have a nice vacation... 😞 Usually it is an "easy going" time in winter... Maybe February is a bit rainy, but the rest of the winter can be pleasant... As a matter of fact, before this winter, I was always suggesting to my friends to come to visit this part of Spain in winter! After this time, I'm not sure about it anymore... 😂
They say that whenever it rained, it stopped... you know? Strange things are happening all over the world... have you seen the chemtrails in the sky over the last few years? Well, it didn't bring anything good, some were affected more than others, but from then on, the fields were affected and so was the climate. Beyond that... it's terrible what has happened. I think I'm done. And that sand looks beautiful, especially the views of the beach. Every day I love the sea and nature in general more and more. I'm glad to hear you had a great Sunday! Here's to many more like that!
Luckily, we didn't have floods in the part where we live... I saw terrible parts of Spain where all crops got destroyed by the rain and flooding... It does look that we had more and more bad weather conditions, year by year... Hopefully, it will calm down a bit and give us a break... 😃
Nature is beautiful... It can be brutal sometimes, but in general, it is beautiful... Have a great week!!! 🥂
I have no doubt about that... I'm already planning to visit a new beach. It's sunny, so I have to make the most of it. Have a great week too!🤗
