Down to the Beach...

After our short hike, we hopped on the cable car down to the beach. What we assumed would just be a tacky snack bar at the bottom turned out to be a nice café with a lovely terrace.

Although there are a few black-sand beaches on the island, Garajau Beach consisted of grey pebbles and black basalt stones, but that didn’t stop Veronica and Ashlynn from swimming, sunbathing and taking photos.

Jimmy and I went for a walk on the footpath along the bottom of the cliff. 

It was nice, but we couldn’t go very far before we it got too wet and slippery as I really didn’t want to go swimming.

Geologists would have surely loved this beach with its unusual rock formations.
