taken 10 years ago, near to Teignmouth, Devon, England
Breaking wave near the Point, Teignmouth
The view from the southern end of the promenade down on to the main beach. Depending on the wind direction, a strong easterly on this occasion, the slope of the beach and the states of the sea and the tide, waves can come in from one direction, impact with sea wall, then be reflected in another direction to expend their remaining energy. Here a reflected wave breaks from top right across the trail of a wave that is receding towards top left.
