It’s finally here… autumn! Balmy September days, empty beaches just right for a delightful walk… we, locals, have taken back the seaside. In fact, if I didn’t live here, this would most likely be the time I’d take a few days to relax by the sea. In most cases, September weather is still great beach weather, I was reminded the other day. Sure, there still are some tourists who clearly share my opinion, but somehow, they always seem less disturbing than the summer crowd – less intrusive, less demanding, less entitled…. And generally less, as in not so many of them.
Right… my point is, September beaches are wonderful. Perhaps not always spectacular, not always as life imbued as they are in the summer, but endlessly relaxing and accommodating. So I’d like to share some images of these September beaches with you over the following days. Many of them are taken with my phone during the one impromptu walk when I didn’t have my camera. Spectacular or not, I want to share these soothing moments with you, hoping to bring you a moment of peace. Enjoy!
Wow, what a great blog post! I absolutely agree that September beaches are just magical. I’m so glad you shared your experiences and photos of these serene spots. Your description of the peaceful atmosphere, compared to the summer crowds, really resonates with me. I’ve been to the beach during September a few times and it’s always such a calming and rejuvenating experience.
I think one of the reasons why September beaches are so special is because of the light. The soft, golden hour light creates a warm and inviting atmosphere that’s just so inviting. I’ve always found that the light at the beach during this time of year is perfect for taking photos and capturing those special moments.
I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your experiences and for reminding us of the beauty of September beaches. Your blog post is a wonderful source of inspiration and I hope you continue to share your amazing experiences and photos with us in the future.

Thank you for your wonderful comment, your input is greatly appreciated. I apologize for taking so long to get back to you. I share your view on September light and I’m glad the September beaches series resonated with you. I’m fortunate enough to live in a town by the sea, so I wanted to share some of its off-season beauty with everyone else.

The sand is covered in beach beds and the likes all summer, so it’s a delight to finally be able to go for a walk without first having to drive some 20-30 km out of town. 🙂
