Impamena Beach at Sunset

Wandering down Impamena beach on a late Sunday afternoon, I stumbled upon a frantic crowd. Thousands of people were singing and dancing on the beach to the pulsing percussion of a local band. I decided to join the fiesta. Hours later, a sudden shower soaked everyone on the beach, but it only intensified the energy of the crowd. As the rain clouds cleared, the setting sun broke through again, lighting up the sky in yellow and gold.
