This sea wall or rock groyne is located on Botany Bay, in the southern suburb of Monterey. It is one of five sea walls along Lady Robinson Beach that have been built to protect the sandy foreshore.
Ann, the ones at Kyeemagh are a bit different. These ones are further south running from Brighton-Le-Sands to Sans Souci. They often attract a lot of fishermen too.
Peter and Grace, I wasn't that familiar with term rock groyne until I was looking for some info on these sea walls which have been at this beach for a while.
What a great picture.
ReplyDeleteExcellent shot!
ReplyDeletewith the lone ship in the heads.. nice shot.
ReplyDeleteA very striking photo, Jim. I like the contrast between the dark gray, jagged rocks and the deep blue sea.
ReplyDeleteIs that the one on Cooks River beside the airport. used to get a lot of fishermen down there.

I especially like the rocks - the big, chunky angular ones contrasting with the tiny oyster shells. Interesting composition too.
ReplyDeleteWow this is beautiful. Certainly this could be seen by sailors.

Careful on those rocks...
ReplyDeleteGreat colour to the water here, Jim
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shot, love the composition.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.
Don't hear that word much, groyne! I always picture Cook when I see Botany Bay.
ReplyDeleteVery nice picture!
ReplyDeleteGreat photo!
ReplyDeleteWould that be what they call a 'groyne' Jim, we have several along the coast too. Nice perspective on this one.
