Beach Thursday Pic of the Week – Dominican Republic
Tagged: beach, beach thursday, beach wallpaper, dominican republic
I’m not sure if it’s the stormy clouds above this Dominican Republic beach, the overall composition of the photo (rule of thirds, people!) or just the natural beauty of the beach that made this the most liked “beach pic of the day” image on my Facebook page. There must be something about those Dominican Republic beaches, however, as the second most liked image was also from the DR. Previously nowhere near the top of my travel to do...

Whether they’ve traveled to Cuba or it’s the appeal of an undiscovered paradise (for most Americans, anyway) at our doorstep, the followers of my Facebook page chose this picture of Varadero Beach on Cuba as their favorite beach image of the week. From the little I know about Cuba, Varadero looks to be its answer to Grand Cayman’s Seven Mile Beach or Aruba’s Palm Beach. About 75 miles from the center of Havana and measuring...

While the over-the-top vibe of Cancun might not be for everyone, it’s hard to argue with the...

Normally when there is an “beach pic of the day” post that features an image from the Maldives, you can count on that image being the most liked for the week. This week, however, was an exception as this image of the El Faro del Colibri Hotel on Isla Carenero in Bocas del Toro, Panama was the image seen by the most people – over 4500! Maybe it was the excitement over finding out over water bungalows are a lot closer...

Tagged: beach, beach thursday, beach wallpaper, mexico, tulum
Apparently I’m not the only one who is a big fan of Tulum as this image of the beach by the ruins was the most liked image in our daily “beach pic of the day” posts. With almost 250 “likes,” 16 comments and 27 shares, the post was seen by over 6000 people, not bad for a Tuesday morning post. I’ll be sharing more on Tulum, including which beach bars to visit, in an upcoming article. If you’re going there in the next couple months, make...
