The bay -- and grounded boats -- at low tide, from the gate
We were utterly amazed that there were actually sailboats sitting all a-kilter out on the rocky beach when the tide went out. I honestly hadn't realized the dramatic difference between high and low tide on the ocean--the tiny bay here is deep and calm during high tide, but during low tide it is a bare rock shelf, littered with boats. The wind was howling in with a vengeance when were walking through Blackness, it was hard to walk on the narrow paths.
