Now Waterlines Heritage Centre and café this harbour building was formally a part of the fishing industry back in time when Lybster used to be one of Scotland’s largest herring ports, of particular note is the old smoke house on the far right of the image. By 1859 some 357 boats operated from the harbour, making it the third-busiest fishing port in Scotland, however only a handful of mainly crab boats work from the harbour these days.

Not the best way to the sea, but one used mainly by boarders gaining access to Dunnet Beach, Caithness, A sweeping arc of white sandy beach backed by rolling sand dunes. Stretching for over 2 miles, the bay is fairly sheltered from the elements, it is a surfer's haven and offers some quite dramatic surf when the winds are high. A Cool Cool Water Link www.youtube.com/watch?v=ch7XgS4xFs8 Hopefully, getting broadband sorted on Friday, so I may not be able to comment, but I will catch up soon as we are back online.

The Farne Islands and the Inner Farne Lighthouse from the Ramparts of Bamburgh Castle, Northumberland. The group has between 15 and 20 islands, depending on the level of the tide. The Farne Islands are associated with the story of Grace Darling and the wreck of the Forfarshire. Grace Darling was the daughter of Longstone lighthouse-keeper (one of the islands' lighthouses), William Darling, and on 7 September 1838, at the age of 22 years, her father and she rescued nine people from the wreck of the Forfarshire in a strong gale and thick fog, the vessel having run aground on Harcar Rock. The story of the rescue attracted extraordinary attention throughout Britain, and made Grace Darling a heroine who has gone down in British folklore.
