Fishing Cove in winter

I've oft told of this being an officially designated nudist beach but ever since it became 'official' the nudists stayed away. They would certainly have to be dedicated to venture down there on this bitterly cold day!

Haha, like many of Britain's nudist beaches -they are empty! Much too cold most of the time. A great scene nevertheless my friend.

Wishing you a Happy Boxing Day and New Year

Well I suppose now that their "secret place" has been informed to all and sundry, they are probably a tad annoyed. No doubt searching along the coast, looking for another place. I hadn't realised how blue the sea was still. It's winter, and normally the sea is churned up and therefore murky - but this picture is showing the water as a beautiful clear turquoise. I hope you have a great 2023

Not only the coastal region, but also its striking colors are a fascinating sight.
Wonderful sound selection to go with it, Andy.
Wish you a contemplative end to the year.

Thank you! Not bad for a fifteen year old but the sad and puzzling thing is that this was as innovative as he ever got! With age he settled for a fairly boring orthodoxy as though frightened to give free reign to a musical genius that was so obviously there, but latent!

A lovely scene, though I suspect any nudists would almost need a parachute to get to the beach!

Andy Rodker ^club has replied to tiabunna ^club

There is a steep but perfectly safe path, George. It looks intimidating from the top but once you're on it you realise its apparent fierceness is simply an illusion! Whole families, from toddlers to grannies use it without mishap or even qualm!
Thank you!

A music whose energy and subtlety (I'm discovering it with great pleasure - thanks Andy!) is well suited to this maritime perspective subject, I imagine, to untimely tides, albeit velvety...
The beach does not look like a nudist beach, indeed, but in this season, as you suggest ;)

Andy Rodker ^club has replied to Eric Desjours ^club

Thank you, Eric. I heard the fact about the nudist beach from a National Trust volunteer tidying up the path. She said that it had been very poùlar with naturists due to its relative inaccessability. I had been walking on this path down to the beach for years and never knew it was a nudist beach (honest!).

Great shot. Wouldn't mind visiting (in season). It looks like it might be a hard climb down and a harder up, but probably worth the work.

Thank you, Andrew. It's one of those strange but very satisfying parodoxes where the thing looks incredibly hard and impressive to see others on it but it turns out to be an absolute doddle!

A superb overview Andy. It's a bonus that there are no nudists in the picture...for me anyway :-)

Andy Rodker ^club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne

I've never seen any there, even before it became an 'official' naturist beach. Indeed, I never even knew it was a place they went to until long after they seem to have departed for good!
Pleased you like it, Rosa. Thank you!
