Earth is a magnificent place to live. It's full of beauty, wonder, and sites to behold. It sparks wanderlust in all of us, from the mountains to the sea, and from the cities to the countryside, we all feel the urge to go explore and experience it.

For some of us, traveling freely around the world is just not in the cards, thankfully, there's Instagram. Instagram puts those out of reach places right in the palm of our hands every single day and gives us a little mental vacation from the daily grind.

It's no mystery that our favorite place to be transported to is our first love, the beach. There are so many wonderful things that make the ocean great, including it's ability to relieve stress and reset your soul, to it's sheer beauty. We dream of visiting beaches from around the world one day and breathing in what makes each one special. Until then we are able to live vicariously through the eyes of photographers from around the globe. 

This is why we love all the Instagram accounts that feature gorgeous, magnificent, jaw dropping, beautiful beaches in their feeds everyday, all taken by some of the best photographers from around the world. They capture ocean waves, palm trees, white sands, sunrises, sunsets, and of course sublime blue water. These photographers are sometimes locals collecting images of the world around them and sometimes they are travelers collecting memories of the places they have been. Either way we are grateful they allow us to share their views and experiences.

In this blog post we wanted to showcase a few of our photographers and show you a small sample of what you will find in beach feeds. We had a hard time choosing who to include, however we finally narrowed it down to six. There are so, so many more we would like to tell you about and we hope to do so in future posts.

These are in no specific order...

It's our belief that we are not just sharing beach pics, but through the power of Instagram we are bringing people together from around the world and showing that we are all connected in some way. What better way to do this other than sharing the calming peace of the ocean in pictures. 

Thank you,

"...breeze is warm and the moon is bright
This endless summer
Boogie boards and diggin' holes
Sand castles and fishin' poles
What a way to save my soul
This endless summer
Just another day in paradise, another story I can tell
These are the moments we can share
Come on let me take you there."

So summer is upon us and it's time to put together plans for a cookout or dinner party. Invite over family and friends and have a fish or shrimp fry. Let the kids run through the sprinkler while you sit back, relax, socialize, and reminisce about childhood memories. While everyone is round plan a camping trip or trip to the beach.

Hope you have yourself a wonderful time this summer making new memories to add to your cherished collection.

Thank you,
Denison
