Bertra Beach
Shot at high tide a little before sunset.
Bertra Strand is located on the southern shore of Clew Bay and connects the mainland to Bertra Island. This beach is a large crescent shaped shore with a sandy substrate. The strand at Bertra can be described as a ‘tombolo’, (a word derived from the Latin ‘tumulus’ meaning mound) which is defined as a landform where sand is deposited in a narrow connection between the mainland and an island.
