There seems to have been a massive North Sea Storm in 1953 which washed away many of the huts and wooden structures, but this was a huge storm, killing many along the coastal areas, not just in Scotland, but I see mentions of The Netherlands also.
Interestingly these fishing village build their houses gable end on to help protect the structures against the weather.
I can imagine they get a fair battering during spring tides, but you know, it is amazing how these harbours are relatively sheltered. We felt the for sure at Cullykhan bay yesterday.
Its quiet right now. A bit off season. Also the road up here is technically closed right now for roadworks which I think might be reducing footfall too.

That looked like absolute heaven, away from the stresses of the world. Some superb photos, could feel the sand under my feet and hear the ripple of the waves.

It was bright yet windy today.
We took a trip to Banff and had a lovely scarifying walk on the beach, followed by a walk around town and past the harbour, fitting in a little Geocaching. There were repairs being done on the harbour wall, with quite a sophisticated set up enabling draining part of the harbour.

More lovely photos! It’s years since I’ve stood on a beach with the wind blwing the sand like that.
Lemon, raspberry and carrot - what could possibly be unhealthy?!
