We spent a day in town and walking the beach with my daughter and her family. Last time we were on the Island was in 2006.
Later in the season as the tide goes out you can collect mussels. I cook them with wine and herbs and they taste heavenly. There are lots of oyster and mussel beds just off the coast.
As a child we lived near the east coast of England and used to collect cockles and samphire seaweed on the beach. They tasted heavenly too.

A Kodak circular snapshot photograph of a beach photographer with his portable darkroom. For many years beach photographers were a common sight at the seaside. They took cheap, often technically poor, 'while-you-wait' portraits as souvenirs.
The origins of popular photography can be traced back to 1888 when George Eastman (1854 - 1932) patented the first Kodak camera. A small box camera it was sold ready-loaded with a roll of negative stripping paper providing 100 circular pictures 2.5 inches (64mm) in diameter. In 1889 Eastman introduced the No 2 Kodak camera which took slightly larger circular photographs, 3.5 inches in diameter.
Originally a shooting term, the word 'snapshot' was first linked with photography in the late 1850s, when it was used to describe a photograph taken with a brief exposure. Over time, snapshot came to mean any amateur photograph taken with a simple camera. Snapshots are informal, personal records of everyday life and experiences.

this dream beach is 150 km north of the artic circle. In june you have sun shine around the clock. I think they have already made some advertisment spots there, but the water is freezing cold, maybe 13-14 degrees
