Toberpatrick

A spectacular walk along this part of the coast. Dipping beds of rock, covered in streaks of green Ulva intestinalis (Gut Weed /Entromorpha) make for some dramatic scenery. This is one of Tom's sites where he did his PhD work (click here for the open access paper), on the tufa microbialites.



Tufa barrage pools.



Lunch time.

Sadly the tide was too high to get down to the interesting bits, especially given the swell and waves. Never mind ...next time....
