Salt Air and Crashing Sound Part 2

After arriving at the sea from the bridle path I finally got to see the waves that were crashing against the reinforced concrete that I could hear from up the pathway. The waves were rising fifteen or twenty feet up, clearing the top of the concrete wall by some way. After getting rained on by salt water taking photos I cycled south along the sea wall down to the pier and down to central Southwold. Looking out over the sea it was a mix of colours and had cloud shadows passing over giving it a mixed, dappled look. Out on the horizon were the dozens of oil tankers moored up transferring their cargo offshore to save mooring and dock fees – causing much local controversy.

If you get the chance to visit the Suffolk coast and Southwold, do it in a blink.
