Can you name the country?

Hola Todas,

I finally posted a photo on my Avatar which I took two years ago. I thought it would be fun if you could take a guess as to which country it is. A hint: It is a country where Spanish is spoken but the main language is English. A type of Creole is also spoken.

Today's hint: A language often spoken in this country is a mixture of English, Spanish, African and French.

It looks similar to a photo on a calender that a friend of mine has.

His family are from Jamaica.

It is not Glovers Reef but I have heard it is a beautiful place. - Brynleigh, JUL 13, 2010

I think that your photo was taken in the western hemisphere.

It looks like the Caribbean coast/region of Mexico, the Caribbean coast of Central America or one of the Spanish-speaking Caribbean Islands.

That's as close as I can get to a specific country.

Quizás es la Costa Brava al norte de Barcelona en mar Mediterráneo.

Maybe it is the Costa Brava north of Barcelona on the Mediterranean Sea.
