I felt like Cleopatra again... The fresh wind of my #TheLongestTrip

Cleopatra's paradise... In Turkey, all the most beautiful beaches are called Cleopatra's beaches for some reason.
I came back to where I was in October. This place mesmerized me. Among the flat sandy beaches of CEลžME, I suddenly found a pearl - Gรผvercinlik Koyu beach

First, we drove 15 km from the city center of Cesme on narrow steppe roads, and we came to a cliff, where we carefully descended a short serpentine. We left our car in a small parking lot, and then we had to walk.
Many beautiful cottages could be seen on the rock. How wonderful it is to live here and drink morning coffee, looking at the sea, - I thought.

We stopped on a cliff and enjoyed the scenery as if enchanted. My daughters did a photo shoot. I was excited! It is truly a place of rare beauty!
As I already said, this small magical beach has another name - Cleopatra's beach. I also visited Cleopatra Beach in Alanya before. This is how Turks attract tourists :) All women probably believe that if they bathe on Cleopatra's beach, then they will feel like this legendary beautiful queen!

When you go down to the sea, you can feel the height of the rock and see the amazing structure of this snow-white mountain. This beach is more protected from the winds of the Aegean Sea and the depth of the sea here is slightly greater than on flat beaches.

This is very important to me. I like to swim in cold water, but I prefer the depth to dive right in. This is important in the cold season. The water temperature was like 16 degrees. My daughters did not support my initiative, so I enjoyed the swim alone and later I got a kick out of the nice evening sun.

If you come closer to the rock, you will see its strange thorny and relief structure! I wanted to photograph this beauty. Some unique breed of seemingly concreted sand created exotic patterns.
And then I sat for a long time and enjoyed the song of the sea. I always enjoy the ebb and flow. It has a positive effect on my nervous system and relieves the stress of my active life :)

Thanks for the great initiative #wednesdaywalk by @tattoodjay :)

We sat on Cleopatra Beach until the sun dipped below the horizon. How beautiful purple sunsets are in windy climates!
I hope you enjoyed my walk with me.
