Beach of Chateau Royale

I've just finished cleaning my mask, adjusting my fins and I'm ready to swim into the water when suddenly my daughter comes running up to me from the sea yelling: "Daddy! Daddy! We saw a stingray!" - Literally! My reaction? Asking "Where?" - Yes! Why not? My daughter is not in panic, just excited about spotting a sting-ray in the sandy bottom while snorkeling. No fear: just pure and simple happiness. This is something that will never happen in Paris where the only wild encounters are with cats usually roaming their territories around the parking lot and many snails (yes, the same ones that french people love to cook a la provençale).
