Sand dunes and beach of course

[SueAppleRun]

Today I decided to go to Caister beach and see what it's like.First nice surprise was going to buy a parking ticket and a sign on the machine saying this car park is free 😁 might be because it's out of season, I don't know but very welcome .

The sand dunes aren't too steep here but definitely upwards a bit and I was soon puffing, then I crested the top and there was the sea, I had a nice wander along the shore, saying hello to people I passed, then back to the car.

It wasn't long and it certainly wasn't fast but I enjoyed the walk, rather gloomy weather but it didn't rain until I was back in the car 😀.

Happy walking challengers 👏nearly the end of the month

Glad you got a walk on the beach without it raining on ya! 👍

[SueAppleRun in reply to Dippyeggs]

It was lovely but it's tiring 😁

walking in dunes is heavy going! But glorious none the less and free car parking 👌🏼

[SueAppleRun in reply to Wavy-chick28]

I love all the free parking round here, and you are right it was heavy going but lovely place to spend time even on a dull day

That looks like a really gorgeous beach.. beautiful dunes but soft sand like that is the worst to walk on! Our local beaches don’t slope as much so no dunes and the grasses don’t grow.. the tides tend to come right up to the sea walls or the cliffs.. so not usually such a big expanse of the softer sand. I love how the beaches around our coastline vary so much even within a few miles.

[SueAppleRun in reply to PeggySusi]

Yes, even a few miles away the beach is so different, I'm hoping to explore more local beaches, but you are right, it was hard d work walking on the sand

Love that view! Makes me want to move to a place with that kind of access to the sea! So nice!

[SueAppleRun in reply to CBDB]

Thank you, it is lovely round here and so many beautiful empty beaches

Sounds lovely ❤️ IMO there's nothing like sea air to blow away the cobwebs 🌊😁

[SueAppleRun in reply to Over60sRunner]

Or wear you out 😁 it's always good to see the sea

Well done, Sue for getting that walk in! I’m sure I’ve been to Caister.

[SueAppleRun in reply to Jools2020]

😁 you probably have Jools, we stayed there once when I was little.

You’re certainly finding some lovely places to walk Sue - and free car parking as well! Bonus!

Thank you, and yes, I'm still surprised when I don't have to pay for parking
