  A glimpse of Paradise... Orient Bay
by melissa_bel
 
 

That's it, I found my dream beach (until proof of otherwise)... this place is a straight out of a fantasy. As I stepped off the car, I could see glances of turquoise through the manicured trees surrouding the area. And wham! This crescent shaped beach is...stunning! The sand is white and so soft my ankle are disapearing in seconds, the water is such an intense blue it glows, the waves are crashing (I love a decent amount of waves), beach bars all around to provide shelter, food, drinks and fun... Of course, you have the occasionnal naked people from Club Orient (the nudistclub at the southern tip of the beach) strolling by. I don't mind, as a European but the reaction of my American fellow passengers is funny (between a gasp of horror, an embarassed laugh or a curious interest).
You can parasail, windsail... Snorkeling is not the best here though.
What can I say, I could spent the rest of my life here!
