TR3440 : Southern Breakwater, Dover Harbour

taken 17 years ago, near to Dover, Kent, England

Southern Breakwater, Dover Harbour
Southern Breakwater, Dover Harbour
The white bulk top left is a lifeboat on the SeaFrance ferry, "Rodin"; the greyish bulk clearly discernible on the distant horizon is the northern coast of France near Calais (can I earmark this pic for submission to geographe.org.fr when it happens?); the main brownish bulk in the foreground is the detached Southern Breakwater, completed in 1909 and only accessible by boat. The weather was beautiful, but just a few hours later, on our return, we were tossed about on the waves, and struggled to make our berth.
