Algae and seaweeds brought in by the Atlantic Ocean lying on the sand of one of the many beaches at Isla Verde, Puerto Rico. Algae are a very large and diverse group of simple organisms, that can be unicellular or multicellular. Most are photosynthetic like plants, and "simple" because they lack the many distinct cell and organ types found in land plants. The largest and most complex marine forms are called seaweeds, seen in the photo. Note the juxtaposition of seaweed and algae with the diversity of patterns and formation on the sand made up mostly by the track of human steps making this image quite interesting and lovely. Also, the detailed textures of the sand and the algae of different sorts and different shades of green makes this photo very attractive. Taken at one of the beautiful beach fronts at Isla Verde (or "Green Island"), a District of Carolina, Puerto Rico, just outside of San Juan. This beach is at the northeastern part of the Island and thus, it is bathed by the Atlantic Ocean. Puerto Rico is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean at its northern side, including northwest and northeast, while the south side of the Island contacts the Caribbean Sea. The beaches at the north side, including those in Isla Verde, which are formed by the Atlantic Ocean have stronger waves and winds, compared to the beaches at the south, which display the beautiful and mysterious flatness of Caribbean beaches.
