 Rugged Coral Reefs And Volcanic Rock Are Hidden Gems Along The Beaches 

The land along the beaches are very unique. There is classic volcano rock and slate being pushed up from the bottom of the sea by the action of the tectonic plates. The wind and rain cause erosion and new formations are forming daily. Here you see beautiful pebble beaches with shoreline reefs, spectacular tiny islands and bays with cliffs, rocks, ledges, and walls. The beautiful coral reefs growing along the beaches are diverse and spectacular.Nature itself has created the perfect environment for a great many species of fish. This, in turn,  created a fishing ground that has provided for the needs of the Amis Tribe for generations, as well as all the other ethnic groups of this area. It is an area that is greatly sought after for those who like to dive or snorkel, and since 1988 has been known as the "East Coast National Scenic Area."

Wow, you made me think on something I hadn't for a L-O-N-G time - #ROCKS, and that rocks!


Had kind of forgot about #Igneous rocks; in case Anyone would like to know:

From Wikipedia: "Extrusive igneous rocks cool and solidify quicker than intrusive igneous rocks. They are formed by the cooling of molten magma on the earth's surface. The magma, which is brought to the surface through fissures or volcanic eruptions, solidifies at a faster rate."

The volcano rock in your IMAGE is remarkable...the view is lovely. I mean, the BLUE HUE of the sea is restful and awe-inspiring.

Toodles.
