The storms of late 2013/early 2014 have been exceptional and the draw down at Fistral is just one example of the damage that has occurred around the coastline of the British Isles. Fortunately both the RNLI lifeguard building (mid-diatance) and the surf centre from where the photo was taken are well designed recent building with piled foundations down into the underlaying bed rock. The large rocks in the foreground have been placed as an interim defence. Only time will tell how the beach and dunes will recover. A reminder of the power of nature!
