“Perhaps I should not have been a fisherman, he thought.
But that was the thing that I was born for.”

― Ernest Hemingway, The Old Man and the Sea



Arimacoa was the name given by the Guaiqueríes, the first indigenous settlers of Margarita Island in the Caribbean Sea, to what today is known as El Valle de Pedro González, located in the northern part of the island. Arimacoa for the Guaiqueríes meant land of jewels.

I took this photo of a fishing boat called Arimacoa years ago at Zaragoza Beach, located in the Pedro González Valley.

It is common to see fishing boats ready to work or already returning from fishing on this beach. And on some other nearby beaches, too, since there are still some fishing communities in this part of the island, where artisanal fishing is still practiced.

And that is precisely one of the beauties of this bay, where one can spend hours watching the fishing boats in the sea.

On this beach, the sea is calm, and although its waters are colder than in the beaches located in the east and south of the island, this has become one of the favorites of those who visit Margarita Island.

This is my entry for SEAPHOTOGRAPHY CONTEST • WEEK 170 - SEA and BOATS, which I discovered thanks to a post by my friend @tengolotodo.

If you made it this far, thank you very much for reading.

All images and writing are my own unless otherwise stated.

The photos were taken in Playa Zaragoza, Margarita Island.

So many shades of blue, I love this Eli 💙

!hivebits

Hey, there! You know that blue is the color 💙

I see you discovered the hive bits, I just read about it yesterday, and I still don't know how it works.

blue is the colour 💙
I am not sure if you can give it to someone like the other ones or just get it for yourself.
All I know is that you write it like this !hivebits

You can't give it, you get it. But I think it is just once a day. And when the bot has resources credit. For example, in this case, the bot didn't answer you. I should take some time to read about all those tokens, like pizza, Luv, and this one ;)
