The sea at high tide down by Amble pier this afternoon... the waves were amazing and the paths around the little shore and the pier were all - quite sensibly closed. The picture is taken from the side of the gates to Cliff House so we were quite high up. This wasn't the biggest wave we saw - some waves battered the bedroom window you can see. It was wild and very cold but very impressive. I do hope no one had to be out at sea today. We've been down the harbour a few times when the sea has been wild but this is the highest and wildest I've ever seen it. The waves were crashing over the breakwater and the wrecks in the harbour were practically submerged. One or two waves were so high we got wet where we were standing, at that point it seemed a good idea to come home and get warm. Was good to come back to a roaring fire and a warm cuppa.
Fabulous sea :) x
