Viewed from The Terrace, Port Isaac, Port Gaverne is the better place to bathe rather than Port Isaac harbour, but beware the tide between the headland and Castle Rock

No special kit, five year old compact digital, on automatic, just push the macro button and move backwards and forwards until it's in focus. Says a lot for Nikon quality.
