Wonderful comparison and I would enjoy that second scene just long enough to take portraits and an overall color shot. The first shot has infinite possibilities. I love a deserted beach!
I feel exactly the same way about our beaches here -- I definitely prefer them in October!! Terrific capture though and that is a LOT of bodies!! Have a great evening, JM!
It's hard to believe it's the same beach. The beaches get crowded here too in the summer but nothing like that. I love the top shot best. I'm partial to the beach on a chilly winter day. I love the mood and the feeling it gives me, just like your top photo...
Wow... that beach is so crowded, no wonder you're anxious for October... you could almost walk from one end to the other on umbrellas and blankets, never touching the sand!

i do love the beach in the winter though!
I love the contrast! What a difference a few months makes!! :)
That is one crowded beach. Sunny days. August, Sept and October seem to be our summertime. October is usually lovely. MB
I love the beach 'year 'round, but the fall can be nice an warm and not crowded.
It's like two different worlds JM, both equally good fun though in different ways.
I'd prefer it in Feb.
Oh my, what a contrast. The crowds really do gather here.

To me that looks like September vs. July...

Such a beautiful beach in February turns into sort of horror in August!
What a difference! I do love a deserted beach.
I'm a winter person myself, lol!
A wonderful post... picture one is what the UK beaches have been recently...the dullest August for years.
Your pictures convince me.
October will soon come.
This is a quite spectacular crowd! I can't agree more with you about October...
As Andrew said, the first shot is more similar to the UK this August! I'd quite like to see masses of people being able to enjoy some sunshine!
Wow... So beautiful picture you have taken!
What a difference!
I would definitely avoid August too!
Meet you there in October, I cannot stand crowds!! Diane
Hehe, I'm very agree. You can not breathe with all the people around. Beautiful beach which is only found in Portugal.
Thank you for your nice comments and happy week.
Tá visto que não és fã de calor
Abraço
Wow what a difference! I'm with you, I prefer less crowds...no matter where I am.
PS-Being the world traveler you are I'm surprised to hear that you haven't been somewhere (Cinque Terre) :)
What a difference!

what an excellent post!

I think I would want to be part of the first shot too.
Wow!
That is more people than I have ever seen on our beaches, even on the hottest summer day!
Enjoy the sunshine!

Couldn't agree more.
What a difference a few months make.
The crowded beach scene reminds me of the book, "Where's Waldo?!"
You won't see me on this beach in the summer.
