Wednesday 3rd April
Low tide was at 10.40am so a perfect morning to explore the beach.

After lunch we walked around the harbour.

Later we drove to Flamborough Head for a clifftop walk that starts at the modern lighthouse ( built in 1806 ).

The crowds of guillemots on the ledges were amazing. The sea was also full of birds. It's good to see masses of wildlife looking healthy.

The gulls had their separate sections.

This beacon light tower dates from the 1660s and stands further back from the cliffs at Flamborough. It is the only known example in England.
