Sky and Sea from Rosh Hanikra

rosh hanikra
In the northwestern tip of Israel right at the border to Lebanon are some tall cliffs called Rosh Hanikra. We visited there early this summer. The photo is looking south from the cliffs at the Mediterranean sea. I hope to write more soon about Rosh Hanikra and about a ghost story associated with these beautiful high cliffs.

Very enticing. Did you swim there?
It is getting really hot here. Wish I could have a dip myself.

No, we didn't go swimming there. There probably are beaches a little south of Rosh Hanikra. Plenty of beach at Nahariya, the town where we went a little later for lunch. Probably too dangerous to swim at the cliffs themselves.

A ghost story would be most apt for cliffs! Lovely photograph :)

I love Rosh Hanikra. When we were there this spring a group of kayakers came right into the grotto!

This is beautiful! And a ghost story attached must make those cliffs even more magical!

@frozen moments and anyone who wants to hear the ghost story...I hope you'll come back! I'll write it up on Sunday morning.

Thanks to all. So nice to have visitors from around the planet.

The rippled water adds a textured contrast to the flat blue sky. Thanks for commenting on my blog! This is a nice Skywatch post. Now I'll go read the ghost story!
