Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Near the Horseshoe The Horseshoe is the name given to one of the rocks on this stretch of the coast. It isn't visible from here. The tops of the tangle (Oarweed, Laminaria digitata) show that the tide is extremely low, because this type of kelp grows below the level of the lowest tide. It's also a useful guide to water depth, because if you can just see the top of the stem and the joint with the blades, you can be pretty sure there's a foot or so of water. If you can see more of the plant, the water is probably too shallow for a boat. The rocks are part of the Ethie Lavas.
