Rising Tide near Pemaquid Point

Nearly all the Maine coast is rocky, and nearly all the Maine coast has great variations in high- and low-tide levels, so as the tide rises and falls, every wave breaks a little differently. Nearby this location is a series of long terraced stairstep-like ledges, and in relation to the angle of the waves hitting the shore, the on-shore break of the waves is ever-changing and ever-fascinating.
