Channel Islands National Park
Channel Islands National Park protects five islands and the surrounding waters off the coast of Southern California: Anacapa, Santa Cruz, Santa Rosa, San Miguel, and Santa Barbara Island. Separated from the mainland by the Santa Barbara Channel, the islands contain steep cliffs, sea caves, beaches, grasslands, and rugged hills shaped by wind and ocean conditions.
Pigeon Point Beach
Pigeon Point Beach is on the southwestern coast of Tobago, within Pigeon Point Heritage Park near Crown Point. The beach faces the Caribbean Sea and is known for its pale sand, shallow clear water, coconut palms, and the distinctive thatched-roof jetty extending into the bay. The surrounding park contains landscaped areas, walking paths, food stalls, craft vendors, and facilities for visitors.
Valley of Fire State Park
Valley of Fire State Park lies in southern Nevada, northeast of Las Vegas, where more than 40,000 acres of red sandstone formations rise from a desert landscape of limestone hills and broad valleys. The park is Nevada’s largest state park and is named for the fiery appearance of its sandstone when sunlight strikes the rock. Wind and water have shaped the landscape into arches, narrow passages, domes, and ridges in shades of red, orange, tan, pink, and white.
Ullapool
Ullapool is a village in the Scottish Highlands about 65 miles north-west of Inverness. Ullapool is known for the progressive, ecologically sound practices of its inhabitants and is the center for the Highland Environment Centre; a project of the Highland Eco Trust.
Sandwich Harbour
Sandwich Harbour is a remote coastal wetland within Namib-Naukluft National Park, about 55 kilometres south of Walvis Bay. It lies where the Namib Desert meets the Atlantic Ocean, with tall dunes rising beside a lagoon, mudflats, and shallow coastal waters. The area is part of the Namib Sand Sea, where wind and ocean moisture shape one of the world's most distinctive desert environments.
