Highcliffe beach from SW

Uploader's Comments

I didn't brave the sea (given the pebbles when getting in/out and my childhood in tropical climes) but I did go on a long walk toward Mudeford. On the way were lots of beach huts around Steamer Point (which was not a point at all). Where we were, well NE of here, it was much sandier.
