Griff Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Weirdly, the sunset started getting later ten days ago but sunrise doesn't start getting earlier for another week yet.

Nice to be out in the hazy winter sun but it was a bit bloomin' raw. One of those days when you can't wait to get in front of a real fire. Mrs WWD and I did some of our courting on that coast, as her family had a cliff top chalet at Skipsea - long gone into the sea, I'm afraid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colour is usually brown , especially close to shore . Low tide most beaches are flat with odd gully , hole , maybe odd boulder field . Against cliffs sand is usually softer , bit of an angle to beach . Most beaches can get a big swell running onto them from the North / North East direction . Tide runs North / South parallel to shore line , makes for an interesting area . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North of the Holderness beaches . Spurn point ( southern most point of the Holderness coast) Kilnsea also worth a visit . Lots of ww2 and ww1 stuff along this bit of the coast . Loads on the beaches , more inland . Spurn is a Yorkshire wild life trust run area . No dogs allowed(all other beaches are great for dogs), long walk to spurn head due to road not been maintained anymore . Not a massive fan of YWT but that's another story ..
