#ocean walks

[captcrab]

The sand seems to always find

The toes within my shoes

The sea salt now upon my lips, tasting oh so good

My spirit’s low but improved , With what now I view

The ocean moving constantly in its vibrant blues

Feeling a gentle wave of air

Rushing in to shore

The gulls and their gliding search needing nothing more

Surf crashes white upon

Sand wiped clean and bare

Here I am once again alone standing there

Always, the ocean rolls quietly in my mind

Thinking that I’ll have the time

A time I never find

But here I am remembering our familiar view

The love of the ocean ….brings me back to you

We’d walk this shore a many a day

Confident of love

The shells we found, special ones

Seemed scattered from above

When alone face to face

Your smile would form my tears

Where has the time now gone

Thinking of the years

The time has gone, so have you

I miss your everything

When I hear the birds in song

I feel it’s you that sings

I feel you near, as I walk today

The waves now reach my path

Thankful for what you gave

To the present and the pass…

Upon a beach washed clean its sand The sun looks down as clouds expand

Storms will come, but fury flows Tomorrow's day, no one knows Capture now what is at hand See the movement, hard to stand See the colors, with such delight Anxiety and fear in flight The power in this calming sea I stand in awe here just to be I know in faith where land divides The grace I've seen, I cannot hide Gratefully, I carry on

Waves keep rushing then they're gone

Life pursuits, muddle the mind The peace I seek, is here I find

If you are visiting Salou and want a bit of beauty and exercise rolled in to one then why not try walking from Salou to Cap Salou?

There is a beautiful coastal path that gives you far reaching views of beaches and the ocean as you walk.

The whole path is signposted with details of how much further you have left to walk. So it’s easy enough to stay on track!

The distance from one end to the other looks to be around 5km. I’d have loved to do the whole thing but on our hottest day of the holiday with not quite enough time to finish the walk, I had to cut it short. At least next year I can go back and finish it!

I actually walked from Hotel Villamarina Club, through Salou Town centre and back past PortAventura World.

If you stick to the coastal path you’ll wind around a beautiful coastal edge.

There is even some pretty beaches for you to stop off and relax on during the way.

My favourite part was how quiet the path was and just some of the beautiful views out in to the ocean.

You’ll even find a few lonely seats to rest your legs along the way…

Plus if you pack your swim gear there are a few rocky beaches below that look very secluded.

If you’re visiting Salou and want to get out of the same old tourist spots in the centre with the British pubs and samey gift shops, I’d highly recommend you give this walk a try!

Walking through such a peaceful area admiring the view had me thinking about retirement. I know it is such a long way off for me and probably most of us but how amazing would it be to wake up with this view from your apartment every day?

Perhaps one day I’ll swap my countryside view for an ocean one?
