Hosta Beach

Well I'd forgotten how nice this walk is! As we set off I recalled taking a lot of photos of waves, last time we were here. Not a lot changes there then - although I did try to restrain myself. The highlight was the Otter - swimming in really rough water before hauling out onto the rocks beneath us. 

There's really quite a strong under-tow here looking at the profile of the beach, the way the waves bounce back and the turbidity of the water at the edge. 

Pounding the shore...

Just the best rocks! 

Banded Lewisian Gneiss.


And the stripes continue along the coast.

Dramatic light and scenery.

Fulmars.

Some nice folded rocks, if you zoom in.

An arch...
And swimming in front of the arch, in a substantial swell; an Otter peering up at us!

Which clambered out...

Before disappearing.

And on the way back - the blow hole.
