This picture was taken from the top of Panama sand dunes.
The southern side of the beach is very broad as shown here. But near the lagoon it becomes a very thin stretch of beach. The lagoon and the sea are divided by this thin sand strip. Just note the different shades of blue – Bright blue sea and murkier lagoon.
The view here is quite striking!

That is a beautiful pic K... The arching bay and the narrow spit of beach... :) Kinda reminds me of the small lagoon they had near the Yala Safari hotel... but they didn't have a bay and this is much larger lagoon-mouth...
Can't believe it's the same salt water that looks so different in color, murky blue vs. turquoise.. And counting the sky with its sky blue, there's 3 blues (I mean blue hues) in the pic. =D
A very scenic pic. Thanks for sharing. ^__^
I totally agree with you on the striking view. Harumi has a very good desription on behalf of me.
the place i went to recently is similar to this, only that our skies are gray and foggy. i love the blue sky here and the blue water, looks very inviting.
Chavie,
Yes, I remember going to Yala safari in 2001 or 2002. It is a very remote place and a wonderful beach to enjoy nature. As you said the difference here is the small bay. It is a pity what happened to Yala Safri during the Tsunami Day.
Harumi,
Wow! You should have written this post instead of me. In fact I too did not notice the 3rd hue of the sky.
Rainfield61,
Yes, Harumi’s description is spot on :)
Betchai,
Yes it was a perfect day for outdoors. The blue water and the sky - indeed they looks very inviting
Thanks all for your wonderful comments!
Yes, that was indeed a tragedy... it was such a simple yet wonderfully located hotel... :)
Yes. When i looked out of the room varandah it was only the long and broad beach and the Sea only. such a nice place it was..
@ Rainfield: Thanks. =D
@ KGP: No way! I don't have the knowledge or experience you possess from all those excursions and hikes.. ne? =D
It's just a habit I got from studying Art for my O/Ls. We were taught to observe the nuances of colors. =D
Guess you had a good art teacher. Most cases we were in the grounds during art period :)
What a beautiful scene and what a contrast between the sea and the lagoon.
George,
Yes, that contrast adds more beauty to the scenery. Thanks a lot for your comments!
this is truly breathtaking..wonderful pic!
Thanks Loshini!
