OCEAN BEACH POOL

Another spot at Ayana we loved was the Ocean Beach Pool, a sea water, free form pool built over the same cliff. The horizon is 270-degrees wide, and the only other place we have seen this was at Algarve, the eastern most point of Portugal from where one looks at the Atlantic. We watched everyone go through the same routine on the first visit ie stand at the edge of the pool, submerged to shoulder level, and stare into the emptiness of that huge stretch of blue water, and reflect .... it is one of those scenes that make everyone feel small, as a mere mortal. What about us? Dora, who cannot spell 'relax' actually did laps, quite determined too, while the girls and I perfected 'the art of doing nothing' and just vegetate ... I meant, meditate.
