[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 825608, member: 50197"] With this site, planning is required. You not only have to look at the high tide times, you have to look at how high the tide will be. We thought we had it all figured out, and earlier this year we got up at 4AM and drove down there, only to find that the tide was still too high to even get on the beach. Turns out it was an extremely high tide, and winds made it worse. Add to that the landscape can change rapidly. It was fairly static for several years, then, sometime last year the treeline moved back significantly. There was a quarter mile stretch of trees between the beach and the marsh that suddenly went into the ocean. The current condition of the beach is not as conducive to photography as it was before. And don't get me started about the gnats. Still, it is a wonderful spot to photograph despite the challenges. [ATTACH type="full"]411721[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
