Visiting the stones

 


A few mornings ago we had a dry morning and an extremely low tide (see the photos below including Fiona looking out to sea); so Fiona and I took the opportunity to walk down to the 'stone beach' in the fishing cove. It gave us the chance to walk quite the way out and look back to the shore and the layers of stones heaped up there as you can see from the opening photo. The stones closest to the water seemed to be stained with tannin from the kelp or maybe peat runoff after rain?



Following are a couple of photos of the fishing hut and old boat. I love that these are still here after 6 years of visiting.


More photos of the stones and one of the steep rock sides of the cove.




It always brings joy to go down and visit the stones - hopefully fine weather will offer us the opportunity to do that a few more times whilst we are over this trip.

  1. There’s nothing like beachcombing on a cobblestone beach (tough for walking barefoot tho)
