Beautiful Places to See a Sunset
Sunsets are a beautiful thing in general, but combine them with a beautiful locale in a far off life and they become magical.
Sembalun Lawang, Sembalun, East Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara 83354, Indonesia
A sunset view from Pelawangan Sembalun, a camping zone at the feet of Mount Rinjani. A place to rest before we did the great ascend to reach the top of the mountain. When in Lombok, challenge yourself to hiking and trekking towards Mount Rinjani....
At dusk, hundreds of giant fruit bats fly softly into the sunset to forage on neighboring islands in the Coron archipelago. (By day they roost in trees by the resort’s abandoned tennis court.) We came to snorkel and had hopes of seeing the dugong...
Amalienborg Slotsplads, København, Denmark
This unique trip around the beautiful habour of Copenhagen will only cost you the price of a bus ticket. Take the harbourbus 991 if you want to go north (Operahouse, Little Mermaid, etc), or 992 if you want to go south (The Black Diamond,...

Oia 847 02, Greece
This little private church is probably the most photographed stop in Oia. Our rented house was right next to it but lower on the steps so we could see lots of people getting lots of photos. Married couples would take their photos next to it,...
Eyrarbakki, Iceland
On a trip to the amazing Iceland this January, my husband and I ended our first day at the small seaside town of Eyrarbakki. I wasn't prepared for how beautiful the Icelandic coast would be. The sun started its slow descent right around 4:45 each...
Words can do little justice to the scenery that awaits travelers to Ha Long Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Hundreds of forested limestone karst formations rise from emerald-green waters, looking like slumbering creatures ready to stir. The...
Access Lane To Caalan Beach, El Nido, 5313 Palawan, Philippines
I don't think there is anything better than an ocean sunset in a tropical paradise with an ice cold beer or pina colada. I feel lucky to have gotten to see the sun set in so many places, but El Nido might take the cake? The landscape here is...
