The image depicts a wide outdoor scene of a pebble beach in Altea, Spain, under a clear, bright blue sky. The foreground consists of a vast expanse of uniformly light-colored, rounded pebbles, with sparse patches of brown organic detritus scattered throughout. The pebbles extend from the bottom of the frame to the waterline. The midground is occupied by the Mediterranean Sea, displaying shades from a lighter turquoise near the shore to a deeper navy blue further out. Minor surface agitation consistent with gentle waves is visible along the immediate coastline. On the far left of the beach, near the waterline, two to three indistinct individuals are visible, appearing seated or reclined. They are dressed in dark clothing. On the distant left horizon of the sea, a small, dark, unidentifiable object, possibly a boat, is present. Several other minute dark specks are discernible along the sea's horizon line. The background is dominated by a cloudless, azure blue sky. A distinct diagonal streak of light, indicative of a sunbeam or lens flare, extends from the upper right quadrant of the sky towards the center. The scene is illuminated by strong, direct daylight.
