Beach Day

Today we headed to the north-west of the island to venture to Coral beach. We followed the sat-nav which led us to a narrow track with a gravel car park at the end of it lined with birch trees. The car park was quite full, but I was determined to get as close as possible to the front and we did find a space near to the kissing gate. We headed down the grassy track and we were soon walking alongside the sea. At the end was a beachhead of beautiful golden sand alongside a rocky pebbled shore. There was also a grassy path leading up to the top of a cliff head. If we were braver, we might have waded across the rocks to the island, but instead we just had a picnic and enjoyed the view. For the number of cars that were around, the area was quiet. Perhaps they’d found walking routes further afield.
