Season: autumn
Rossglass is a varied beach, a mixed medium of sand and shingle, with rocks visible at low tide. Seals can be glimpsed in the sea offshore, with inter-tidal birds like oystercatchers at the water’s edge. There’s a lovely walk along to St John’s Point to the south, as well as views west towards Tyrella beach and the extensive dunes beyond. The whole stretch of coastline between here and Newcastle is well worth a visit at any time of year.
What the beach means to Bill.
