16th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Pirate Tower at Victoria Beach

This little-hidden beach is one of my favorite beach along the charming and artistic town of Laguna Beach, CA. But what I love the most about this beach is the 60-foot tower that stands at the base of the cliff known as "La Tour" a French castle inspired that was built in 1926 to provide beach access to the residents above. I captured this memorable moment when this lovely bride tried to escape the high tides during the last glow at sunset. But she eventually got wet and had a blast doing it.
