After our spontaneous and wonderful detour to Conrad's Beach, we continued our drive to Lawrencetown Beach. Sadly the powerful hurricanes that have come here have stripped most of the "beach" away leaving treacherous cobblestone path along the majority of the beach, the sand stolen away except for beneath the waterline.
But the power of the waves is what makes this beach so popular. This is where the surfers and stormwatchers go. Even right before the new moon the waves are very tall giving the surfers peaks to play with.
My favourite moment is after the waves fall and the world turns to a frothy white blanket of seawater.
If you are not going in the water, you could stare at the waves for hours. It is just such a shame that the sandy beach is now gone and you have to navigate over sliding rocks. Lawrencetown is really for those who want to get wet and beaten by the Atlantic, forever trying to tame its wild waves.

Again, you've captured the ocean so beautifully. Those waves are mesmerizing, I'm definitely a watcher though, those waves would definitely be intimidating to navigate.
Wow, gorgeous! I love the sheer energy of it! Thanks for sharing, Suzie!
I seen people on surf board in Pacific ocean off of Bay area in Califorina all looks cold to me.
Great picture.
Stop by for coffee some time.
