Take a walk along the Esplanade

The Esplanade is the main street of Woodgate that runs along the beach. And between the street and the beach itself is a wonderfully shady paved path for walking and bike riding.



And every so often (approximately at each street intersection opposite the Esplanade) is an entrance down to the beach.

Found on the beach

I really enjoyed my early morning walk along the beach during our stay. Often getting there just after dawn, I was keen to see what the tide had washed up. (And it was a perfect time to escape while the children were still sound asleep!)

My first view of the beach would often look like this


On closer inspection I might find a pretty shell or two




Or a bunch of seaweed


The variety was amazing when I took the time to look closely!
