The beach at Pollok Bay is formed by a high pebble wall. This has been here for at least 8000 years. The size of the stones decreases from west to east. They are mostly sand and clay stones.
Warning: extremely high tidal range of at least 15 m! This makes it one of the highest in the world! Do not go swimming, it is life-threatening!

A wonderful beach for stone freaks
