Sky reflections at low tide
Any month; the reflection needs low tide, calm wind and a clear sunset.
Tourism source ↗A long, flat beach in Mitoyo where shallow pools left at low tide mirror the sky, especially at sunset on calm days. Photos here are often compared to Bolivia’s salt flats. Check the tide time and sunset together.
