Kinmel Bay (N.Wales)


July 30th and 1st Aug 2013

A few days around Kinmel Bay with the family was an opportunity to try some sea-watching. I set out about 6.30am in the mornings and strolled down the beach from Kinmel Bay, towards Asda and then onwards to the estuary near the Blue Bridge that takes you to Rhyl. You can see the tower in Rhyl from the beach at Kinmel Bay.


The weather on both days was warm and sunny with a slight breeze, even at that time in the morning.
