The lake, like a sparkling sapphire set on a steep cliff, contrasts with the Atlantic Ocean below. It is not really suspended in the sea, but because of its special geographical location and poor vision at the height, it gives the illusion that the lake is "floating" on the sea. In fact, the lake is only a few dozen meters from the sea, but it's this immediacy that makes it a popular spot for photographers and tourists alike.
