It’s a vacationer’s dream: a secret beach tucked away from the masses, with shade, sun and pristine water. And this dream comes true at Playa Del Amor, more commonly known as Hidden Beach, on one of the Marieta Islands off the coast of Mexico.
这是度假者梦寐以求的地方:一片有阳光、阴凉处和未被污染的海水而又远离喧嚣的沙滩。埃莫海滩便是他们最理想的度假场所,这片位于墨西哥海岸玛丽埃塔群岛的沙滩也被称为世外桃源沙滩。
The unlikely source of this magical little secret: a bomb blast, according to Quora user Siddhartha Das. Mexico began testing bombs in the uninhabited Marieta Islands in the early 1900s, resulting in a gaping hole in the surface of one of the islands. Over time, tides filled the hole with sand and water, creating a secluded watery Eden where determined beach bums can swim, sunbathe and kayak largely out of sight.
Quora用户悉达多•达斯说,造就这片非凡之地的奥秘是一场炸弹引爆事件。墨西哥在上世纪初开始在无人居住的玛丽埃塔群岛试验炸弹,他们在其中一个小岛上炸出了窟窿。时间一长,潮水带来的细沙和海水覆盖了这个炸弹洞,造就了这个远离喧嚣的海上伊甸园,海滨达人在这里游泳,晒日光浴,划皮艇。
Playa Del Amor, literally Lover’s Beach, is invisible from the outside, but visitors can access it through a 24m-long tunnel that links the secluded beach to the ocean.
埃莫海滩的字面意思是“恋人海滩”。除了通过一条连接海洋的24米长的隧道,没有其他办法能到达这片沙滩。
