Equinox. Whether spring or fall I often find myself thinking of the knowledge found inside the Mayan Culture. And one day I’d like to be in the Riviera Maya for the feather serpent of light in Chichen Itza on an Equinox. The days proved special or important in numerous cultures through history, I’d still like […]
Postcard-A Heart in the Sand, Puerto Vallarta
by Craig Zabransky on March 14, 2013 in Beach, Mexico Travel, Postcards
Romance seems to be everywhere in Mexico and the beaches of Puerto Vallarta are no exception. At times it can even be written in the sand. This couple walks away after drawing a heart on the beach. Yes, Puerto Vallarta provides a great opportunity for romance. In fact, the most popular beach in town is […]
Playa Camarones, Mazatlán
by Craig Zabransky on March 7, 2013 in Beach, Mexico Travel
One morning in Mazatlán I woke up early to surf. A local video crew working with the tourism effort for Mazatlán acquired a few surf boards and wanted shoot some footage of a few of us on the waves. We decided to paddle out at Playa Camarones (Shrimp Beach). Apparently, there isn’t much they don’t […]
The Beach at The Moorings in Islamorada, FL
by Craig Zabransky on February 28, 2013 in Beach
Visitors don’t (or shouldn’t) come to the Keys for solely a beach holiday. That said, they are a few gems. One of those is the beach at the Moorings in Islamorada. The Moorings, or Moorings Village and Spa is a high end luxury property. Visitors essentially stay in beach front houses not hotel rooms. And […]
Getting Photographed in my Kilt on the beach, Isle of Arran, Scotland
by Craig Zabransky on February 14, 2013 in Beach
I never thought I’d be involved with the beach photos, but when I dressed up in a traditional Scottish Kilt at a wedding on the Isle of Arran, I was automatically put into the van. It is a tradition in Scotland. All men brave enough to wear a kilt at a wedding get photographed. I […]
A Spring Lake Summer Surf Session
by Craig Zabransky on February 7, 2013 in Beach
As a New Yorker, I am not supposed to be a fan of New Jersey. But truth be told, I learned to surf at the Jersey Shore and I am a fan. My first time paddling past the break was in Spring Lake, a beach where I spent seven straight summers. I had some good […]
A Little Beach Time in Yelapa, Mexico
by Craig Zabransky on January 31, 2013 in Beach, Mexico Travel
South of Puerto Vallarta and only accessible by boat, Yelapa can be a little off the main tourist trail. Yet, the beach town popular as a boating excursion, does fill up midday with visitors. Most spend time at the beachfront talapas enjoying an afternoon lunch and some refreshing cocktails or cervezas. I know I joined them.
Punta Cana – An All-Inclusive Beach Town in the Dominican
by Craig Zabransky on January 24, 2013 in Beach
The all-inclusive. Certain tourist destinations are built on the premise and Punta Cana, Dominican Republic is one of these resort “paradises.” And whether you like them or don’t like them, (they do provide value for certain travelers) in the freezing temperatures of winter I am guessing you can be easily convinced to trade places with […]
