On a sunny Sunday at Beer in East Devon, it pays to be around bright and early to enjoy the peaceful beach. With blue skies and the crunch of the waves on the pebbles and just a few people it’s a perfect spot.


The stuff of coastal folk


Looking West, Branscombe is around the corner, I don’t think you can walk it at beach level, but you can always climb up to the South West Coast Path.
I hope you liked an early peep at Beer?
Did it rain? Wonderful pictures. The top one struck me. The top rock reminds me of a camel looking out towards the water and beneath him, I see the (rock as) turtle. Better clean my glasses. 😀
Not a drop of rain! and I can see exactly what you see, it’s what happens when you come from Devon or hang around us Devon folk too much!
😀 😀 😀
I didn’t even look that closely when out of my mouth came, “WOW.”
So much expectancy hanging out there Gilly, especially that deck chair scene. Is it fossil country, like Lyme Regis? Those cliffs look promising.
Lyme is just a few miles east. I’ve never found a fossil at Beer but it is part of the Jurassic coast. Mind you I took my G daughter to Lyme on Sunday, she was desperate to find a fossil but we couldn’t!
I love the deckchairs shot! I haven’t seen deckchairs in years 🙂
You’re kidding me right? 🙂
Nope! I obviously haven’t been to any beaches where they still have deckchairs!
I did! 🙂 Are the beaches all pebble? Otherwise it would be perfect.
A couple in East Devon are pebbles but plenty of sandy ones around as well!
It looks wonderful Gilly and I love that shot of the blue deck chairs…..beautiful
Thanks Seonaid!
fascinating!
Glad you enjoyed it Cindy!
I loved your early peep at Beer, Gilly. I love the gallery photos the best. 🙂
Thanks Christine 🙂
Ohhhh…I see the turtle too. What a beautiful place Gilly. Love the shot of the deckchairs.
You’ll have to come and see Jo. They do fishing trips out of Beer!
I can see the turtle, but not the camel, looks like a bear to me! Beautiful place!
🙂
If God’s will I will revisit U.K., Devon will be a top bucket list. I need to ask my cousin about this. I guess closest to them was Bournemouth plus honestly , everything was a whirlwind for me during our Summer there last year. Thanks for the fun travel.
I hope you will be able to one day!
Beer is a tiny peaceful place not like bustling Bournemouth! hope you get to return!
Your title really fooled me, Gilly. 🙂 Gorgeous shots, and I love the deckchair one.
I thought you might have heard of Beer 🙂
I like the photo of the shimmering horizon.
The camera doesn’t do it justice!
LOVE the bluest pic! So that’s where you can soak all the beer you want and not puke afterwards? 😀 😉
You got it Rommel!
I have to admit I was looking for a bottle as well!!! 🙂 Gorgeous shots all Gilly, especially the one with the deckchairs.
As there are several pubs, there are plenty of those to be found!
