Lovely. I am on the coast as well but nothing to see apart from pebbles.
Sussexsun, if I looked out over the coast I would probably see very little of plant life, but we walked slowly and zoned in on anything out of the ordinary. It is surprising what you can find. Often there are plants growing among the pebbles, like sea holly, wild carrot or radish.

The beach and gap
Beach as far as the eye can see - you must get hit with Easterly gales - the land looks so flat. I am sure it is lovely in the summer though. Sussexsun.
Yes it can get windy and so it is very popular with wind and kite surfers plus the large greens gives them plenty of room to set up their gear.
i think it is a lot very part of the uk To live and would never move back inland again.
