At the beach

The Isle of Wight is famous for its sandy beaches and here is a prime example. This is a view from Shanklin facing towards Sandown on the East coast of the island. In the distance you can see Culver down which has amazing views from the top - there are some old coastguard houses right on the very top!

Also in the distance along the beach is Sandown pier - the only pier still standing along this stretch of the island after the storms of 1987 blew down Shanklin pier.

Eggs-cellent photo. The sky just looks like it goes on forever. And the water looks delicious.
