Cave Beach
For most people, beaches are cool tourist destinations for spending free time and to forget about life in crowded cities for the day. But then there are these amazing unusual beaches.
Visiting these unusual beaches will not only give you calm and peace, but they will make you feel like you’re in different world! When you are in a singing beach, a glowing beach, a beach with rainbow-colored sand, of course, you are in a different world.
Here are the most wired beaches you’ll find on Earth. They are distinctive, not because of they’re still a way from most people to reach but because of their strange and amazing singularity.

1. Whitehaven Beach

Whitehaven Beach, which is located in Whitsunday Island, Australia. The sands on this beach are radiant white and consist of silica. This allows people to walk barefoot even on hot sunny days without feeling like their feet are getting really hot.

2. White Sand Beach

Hyams Beach is located in New South Wales, Australia and is encircled by three radiantly white sand seashores. This amazing beach was mentioned in the Guinness Book of Records as having the beaches with the whitest sand in the world. People in Australia recommend it for visitors as well as themselves! If you’re in Canberra, it’s about a 3 hour drive from your place to reach the beach, but it’s really worth it!

3. Star Sand Beach

Iriomote Island, where this beach is located, is a small island in Okinawa, Japan. Visitors are normally seen crouched over the sand, examining the curiously-shaped particles on their hands. Most of the beach is covered of exoskeletons of foraminiferans.

Foraminiferans are type of zooplankton, microscopic marine organisms, which believed to be fossil evidence dating back 550 million years ago. If you look closely, you might find some that are still living.

4. Black Sand Beach

When basalt lava flows into the water it cools very fast, making the black sand found on this beach. This odd beach is located in Hawaii.

5. Hidden Beach

In the Marieta Islands, about 20 nautical miles from Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, lies a peaceful beach paradise hidden underneath a hole in the ground. It was created when the Mexican government, in the early 1900′s, made a bomb site in preparation for the First World War blowing up a very big hole in the canopy of the grotto. The beach is still unsullied due to the difficulty of getting to it and despite its story, we’re actually thankful – it’s marvelous beach!

6. Rainbow Beach

They say: more than 74 different colors of sand are coloring this beach, just like a rainbow! The colors came as a result of years of erosion and iron oxidation dating back to the Ice Age. This amazing beach is located in South-eastern Queensland, Australia.

7. The Moeraki Boulders (Dragon Eggs) Beach

10. Singing Beach

Before you start wondering about the name, it’s not about music! The frictions between the grains of sand in this beach are actually more of a creaky, squeaky kind than a melodic kind. But this is why it’s called “Singing Beach”. It’s located in Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts, USA and considered as one of the most popular beaches in the world.

11. Shell Beach

Shell Beach is in L’Haridon Bight, Shark Bay, Western Australia and is considered to be one of the only two beaches made entirely out of shells. The water here has high salinity. That’s why numerous cockles grow quickly along 7 to 10 meter of seashore with no appearance of its natural predators because they don’t have the ability to live in such conditions.

12. Grass Beach

Here it’s not sand, it’s all grass! This unique beach located in Kourou, French Guiana.

How to Digitally Record/Video a UFO sighting:


Como registar digitalmente ou gravar um vídeo de um avistamento de um UFO:




Stabilize the camera on a tripod. If there is no tripod, then set it on top of a stable, flat surface. If that is not possible lean against a wall to stabilize your body and prevent the camera from filming in a shaky, unsteady manner.

Estabilize a camera com um tripé. Se não tiver um tripé, então coloque-a em cima de uma superfície estável. Se não for possível, então encoste-se a uma parede para estabilizar o corpo e evitar que a camera registe de maneira tremida e instável.

Provide visual reference points for comparison. This includes the horizon, treetops, lampposts, houses, and geographical landmarks (i.e., Horsetooth Reservoir, Mt. Adams, etc.) Provide this in the video whenever is appropriate and doesn’t detract from what your focus is, the UFO.

Forneça pontos visuais de referência para comparação. Isso inclui o horizonte, cimo das árvores, postes de iluminação, pontos de referência geográficos (como o Reservatório de Horsetooth, Mone Adams, etc) Forneça esses pontos no vídeo sempre que for apropriado e não se distraia do que é o seu foco, o UFO/a Nave.

Narrate your videotape. Provide details of the date, time, location, and direction (N,S,E,W) you are looking in. Provide your observations on the weather, including approximate temperature, windspeed, any visible cloud cover or noticeable weather anomalies or events. Narrate on the shape, size, color, movements, approximate altitude of the UFO, etc and what it appears to be doing. Also include any unusual physical, psychological or emotional sensations you might have. Narrate any visual reference points on camera so they correlate with what the viewer will see, and thereby will be better able to understand.

Faça a narração do vídeo. Forneça pormenores sobre a data, hora, local e direcção (Norte, Sul, Este, Oeste) que está a observar. Faça observações sobre as condições atmosféricas, incluindo a temperatura aproximada, velocidade do vento, quantidade de nuvens, anomalias ou acontecimentos meteorológicos evidentes. Descreva a forma, o tamanho, a cor, os movimentos, a altitude aproximada onde se encontra o UFO/nave, etc e o que aparenta estar a fazer. Inclua também quaisquer aspectos pouco habituais de sensações físicas, psicológicas ou emocionais que possa ter. Faça a narração de todos os pontos de referência visual que o espectador irá ver e que, deste modo, será capaz de compreender melhor.

Be persistent and consistent. Return to the scene to videotape and record at this same location. If you have been successful once, the UFO sightings may be occurring in this region regularly, perhaps for specific reasons unknown, and you may be successful again. You may also wish to return to the same location at a different time of day (daylight hours) for better orientation and reference. Film just a minute or two under “normal” circumstances for comparison. Write down what you remember immediately after. As soon as you are done recording the experience/event, immediately write down your impressions, memories, thoughts, emotions, etc. so it is on the record in writing. If there were other witnesses, have them independently record their own impressions, thoughts, etc. Include in this exercise any drawings, sketches, or diagrams. Make sure you date and sign your documentation.

Seja persistente e não contraditório. Volte ao local da cena e registe o mesmo local. Se foi bem sucedido uma vez, pode ser que nessa região ocorram avistamentos de UFOs/naves com regularidade, talvez por razões específicas desconhecidas, e talvez possa ser novamente bem sucedido. Pode também desejar voltar ao mesmo lugar a horas diferentes do dia (durante as horas de luz)para ter uma orientação e referência melhor. Filme apenas um ,inuto ou dois em circunstâncias “normais” para ter um termo de comparação. Escreva tudo o que viu imediatamente após o acontecimento. Logo após ter feito o registo da experiência/acontecimento, escreva imediatamente as impressões, memórias, pensamentos, emoções, etc para que fiquem registadas por escrito. Se houver outras testemunhas, peça-lhes para registar independentemente as suas próprias impressões, pensamentos, etc. Inclua quaisquer desenhos, esbolos, diagramas. Certifique-se que data e assina o seu documento/testemunho.

Always be prepared. Have a digital camera or better yet a video camera with you, charged and ready to go, at all times. Make sure you know how to use your camera (and your cell phone video/photo camera) quickly and properly. These events can occur suddenly, unexpectedly, and often quite randomly, so you will need to be prepared.

Esteja sempre preparado, Tenha sempre uma camera digital, melhor ainda, uma camera vídeo consigo, carregada e pronta a usar sempre que necessário. Certifique-se que sabe como lidar com a sua camera (ou com o seu celular/camera fotográfica) rápida e adequadamente. Esses acontecimentos podem acontecer súbita e inesperadamente e, por vezes, acidentalmente, por isso, necessita estar preparado.

Look up. Be prepared. Report. Share.

Olhe para cima, Esteja preparado, Relate, Partilhe.
