By the Shores of Baltic Sea


I love walking along the shore of the Baltic sea in any weather, except for rain :-) The shallow part of the Baltic sea is called the Gulf of Finland. The city of St. Petersburg is located by the gulf coast. 

In autumn, few people can be seen on the shores. Now the water is cold, the sand is damp, but this did not prevent those who like to walk along the coast to breathe in the fresh sea air.




It was windy that autumn day. The wind drove away light clouds and then blueness appeared on the sky and the sun sparkled, reflecting in the sea water. Waves rolled over the sand, bringing in seaweed and pebbles.

 

 
But suddenly heavy clouds appeared, which were ready to rain down. But it rarely rains over the Gulf and the clouds quickly drifted towards the city.
 



In such weather, there were many kite-boarding enthusiasts on the shore. They trained under the guidance of a coach. How beautiful these brave people looked, sliding along the waves on their boards and controlling their kites. I admired them. Ah, if I were younger ...
 




 
 
By the evening, the wind died down and the rays of the sun made their way through the clouds. Together with other walkers, I enjoyed the view of the water and sky.
 
 

 

I often talk about the sea and the Gulf of Finland, maybe you are interested then read here and here  and here

  1. It is a beautiful place you have there and I can easily understand that you love a walk along the water. I especially like the pine trees in the sand.

  4. It really does seem to be a wonderful place to walk and I can see why you enjoy it so much. I would relish the chance to walk along the shores of the Baltic, but I doubt it will ever happen. Take good care, Nadezda.

  6. Надежда,
    спасибо за великолепную прогулку) Красота необыкновенная, уже от одних фотографий веет соленым ветром и свежестью.
    А шум прибоя в видео, заставил меня страдальчески морщиться и искренне завидовать, в такой красоте живете!

    1. Лена, вода и волны всегда заставляют остановиться и оглянуться. Они вечны. И красивы. Но в морозы эти волны превращаются в глыбы льда. Но не будем сейчас о морозах :-)

  7. Чудесная прогулка! Я тоже вспомнила свои долгие прогулки по-над морем из Ашдода до Ашкелона и обратно, это 24 км, где-то около 6-ти часов. Я приезжала на окраину Ашдода, оставляла машину у последних домов, доходила до воды, снимала кроссовки и шла босиком по кромке воды. Одна такая прогулка, и возвращаешься обновлённый назад в жизнь полную всего, что она тебе подбросит…

    1. Вы правильно заметили, Ирина, такая прогулка обновляет, успокаивает, настраивает на филосовский лад :-) Я посмотрела на карте где вы гуляли - довольно длинная дистанция.Сейчас, в начале осени ходить босиком по берегу залива холодно.

    I love long walks along the coast and you showed the Baltic Sea beautifully in your photos.
    Amazing clouds also caught my attention. They look like on the canvases of the best painters!
