L'Ancresse Bay

L'Ancresse Bay
L'Ancresse Bay is a large sandy bay in the north of Guernsey which is popular with both swimmers and surfers in summer. Because the land is flat it was heavily fortified with Martello towers all around the bay, forts and batteries on the headlands and a German anti tank wall. Behind the bay is Ancresse common with its golf course and megalithic tombs.

That's why its mystifying to me. Somehow (in my mind) cold water must be dark blue and murky, and the beaches should be gravely and rough :)

There are beaches like this much further north- in Scotland or in Norway- they look Caribbean and the water is freezing;-)
