A perfect day for a sail out of the River Dart estuary. Across the river, the first headland sticking out into the water is Combe Point with the ‘Dancing Beggars’ rocks extending into the water. Walked there, taken the photos, posted on tumblr already. :-) Beyond that, is a long and very thin sliver of sand. That is Slapton Sands… walked there, taken the photos, posted a section of that on tumblr already (more to come on that part of the SW Coast Path later). :-)

The headland on the horizon is Start Point… it has a lighthouse. One day we will have walked the entire distance there and back again. Stay tuned…

Just a bit futher along and time to stop and survey the gorgeous vista. Spectacular, isn’t it?

Looking back now and the River Dart Estuary seems a long way off!

Just beyond Combe Point, these three rock formations in the water are called the Dancing Beggars (I think)

And looking forward towards Combe Point
