Although when we landed from kayaks, this seemed to be a pristine beach, a short look around soon showed the extent to which plastic bottles, oil drums, fish boxes and broken fishing tackle litter the back of the shore. Although much of this stuff is no doubt lost accidentally, a short way away I found a handwritten paper message in a bottle which had clearly been deliberately thrown in the sea.
