Day Out at Cleopatra Island

#summervacay Cleopatra Island Beach is honestly like something out of a beach daydream. The sand is super soft and kinda magical, locals say it was brought from Egypt for Cleopatra herself (no idea if it’s true, but it’s fun to believe). The water? Crystal clear and that perfect shade of turquoise that makes you wanna jump in before even putting your stuff down. We took a boat to get there, and the ride itself was beautiful, calm sea, mountain views, and that salty breeze hitting just right. Once on the island, it’s all about relaxing. Swam, laid out in the sun, wandered around the ruins (yep, there are ancient stones right behind the beach), and just soaked it all in. It’s not super crowded either, which makes it feel even more special. We brought snacks and just chilled under a tree for a while, zero stress, max vibes. If you're into beaches with a little legend and a lot of beauty, Cleopatra Island is a total win.

The water here is so crystal clear, it looks like jelly, so blue that filters seem superfluous.
