A changing landscape at Porthminster Beach!

Something a little different on Porthminster this week! Just look at this incredible ridge of sand running along the beach.

The recent stormy weather and shifting tides show we are definitely in Autumn! It's fascinating how our beautiful coastline can change.

And it looks like our four-legged friend Arthur has found the perfect vantage point!
