Busy on the beach
Busy on the beach
I scrambled up above the shingle beach to have a coffee break and take in the view. Lots of family groups were traversing the shore between Silverdale and Far Arnside taking advantage of the low tide and warm (if overcast) afternoon. A channel of the River Kent separates the shingle and mud beach from the huge expanse of exposed mud that makes up Morecambe Bay. In the distance the buildings of Grange-over-Sands can be seen across the mouth of the Kent estuary.
