When I got back from my Throwley booking earlier this month, I decided to take a walk along the beach to get some kms in since I’d completed the Alps to Ocean challenge and started climbing Mt. Everest 🥶🥶🥶🗻🗻 (also completed while in Salisbury).
BUT!!! To my horror I found that most of the beach has been stripped away by the storm. As far as the eye can see, used to be beach…its now mostly stones and rocks and the sand has been stripped right down to the chalk bedrock. I genuinely could not believe my eyes. I can see just beneath the waves there’s still some beach, but not sure how far it extends.
The beach where I used to take my grandson to play is now just a rocky morass.
Unreal, the power of nature. I’m saddened too because it’s one of my favourite places to walk. But a local said the wind and sea will likely blow it all back when the winds blow from another direction. Meanwhile…😔😔😔 no beach walking🚶🏻♀️🚶🏻♀️ for me atm, I’ll have to try catch it when the tide is out.
Meanwhile, I shall have to head southward and visit Pegwell Bay again.
