There is something magical about beaches and there is nothing more romantic or fascinating than beach sunsets, so even this one at Bandol beach in the Var region in southern France.

Bandol don’t just have great beaches, it’s perhaps most known internationally for it’s excellent wines, so if you ever go there: make sure to get the chance to taste it.

I couldn’t resist to take a photo of this stranded shark laying on the beach turned to the sunset… *giggles*

No, I didn’t swim, I was too afraid of the sharks… ha ha… or was it maybe since my back can’t handle to be chilled down? Hm…

The others were swimming before the sun did set even though some were a bit hesitating….

Ah…. those wonderful summer memories to dream about… *sigh*

    But I’m not too sure where is Bandol? Is their wine really wonderful?

    Yes, Cecil Lee, it’s really a wonderful place AND wine! They even have a winefestival there because of that.

    It was a time i didn’t go on blogsphere with all the stress of Christmas time at school and after Mélissa took my computer as she had a problem with hers! :shock:
    Bandol!!! Your pictures are super. I recognize this one who hesitated!!! :razz:
    Yes! Bandol is good but Bordeaux too and Bourgogne and Côte du Rhône and Gewurztraminer from Alsace are excellent too!
    for Christmas we bought some rosé and red wine from here, Ollioules and around. Pierre well cook l’Aïoli, a delicious traditional south recipe with seafruits, fishes and vegetables!!!!
    I say no more…
