Blue Mountain Beach is truly a national treasure. The immaculate white sand beach, combined with the breathtaking turquoise water, serves as a great way to remind ourselves that life truly can be beautiful! As a further compliment to the area’s natural aesthetic, gorgeous blue lupine flowers are scattered throughout.
