This is the main swimming beach on the P.E. beachfront. As you can see it was very low tide, and I was lucky enough to be there out of season, and just about had the place to myself! Here we are looking towards the harbour.
You keep teasing we-of-cold climates with your shots of beaches! Nice to be the only one on a beach, isn't it? It's so cold here this morning that I had to take my fleece bathrobe out of the closet. Have a good week-end.
Thanks for leaving a comment in my post Customizing your blog. I have responded to your comment. However, it looks like you have found the solution to what you are asking and I wonder if I should continue to do what I said I will do in my response to your comment.
bc, its about 3.5km from our place. If you scroll to the bottom of the page, a pretty unscientific way of getting an idea would be that we live on the P of Port, the harbour you see in the background is under the T of Port and the beach is under the T of Elizabeth!! I guess water temperature is a relative thing, we met an Austrian once in Namibia, who jumped in the pool and said it was warm.... so Max jumped in and just about walked on water it was so freezing.... turned out the Austrian was used to a daily swim in the little mountain streams of the Tyrolean Alps!! Yesterday the water was 19 degrees C, which we consider just about warm enough to consider going in!!

ReplyDeleteI was wondering where the people were! Great beach!
ReplyDeleteIt has something of a grey bleakness about it - like Rhyl out of season [come to think of it - in season these days too]
ReplyDeletebeach scenes are so peaceful to me.

ReplyDeleteYour harbor cranes don't look like ours (I think I like yours more, they look like iron giraffes.) :D
