Low tide...
Low tide...the sea has gone, revealing a shore with green algae and wet sand...the sun sets behind the rock, illuminating the clouds and the wet sandy spit of the shore...

MARE ADRIATICO. ORIZZONTE
UNA BARCA IN AVVICINAMENTO...
La navigazione nell'alto Adriatico richiede cautele particolari, molto diverse da zona a zona:
Fondali: soprattutto con imbarcazioni a vela bisogna abituarsi a prestare sempre attenzione allo scandaglio in prossimità della costa; se si escludono le bocche di accesso alla laguna di Venezia tutti gli altri atterraggi possono presentare un potenziale rischio, aggravato dalla poca trasparenza dell'acqua e dalle ampie escursioni di marea. Un malaugurato sfioramento del fondale sabbioso, se avviene a velocità minima, non provoca in genere danni letali ma c'è il rischio di arenarsi senza riuscire poi a liberarsi.

A BOAT APPROACHING...
Navigation in the upper Adriatic requires special precautions, which vary greatly from area to area:
Deep waters: especially with sailing boats, you must get used to always paying attention to the depth sounding near the coast; with the exception of the entrances to the Venice lagoon, all other landings can present a potential risk, aggravated by the poor transparency of the water and the large tidal ranges. An unfortunate brushing of the sandy seabed, if it occurs at minimum speed, does not generally cause lethal damage but there is the risk of running aground without being able to free yourself.

Albufeira is a coastal city in the southern Algarve region of Portugal. It’s a former fishing village that has become a major holiday destination, with sandy beaches, [a waterfront promenade] and a busy nightlife strip. Local fishermen now use the modern marina, also a base for diving, dolphin-watching and boat trips.― Google
