Sea wind, statue walk, sunset crowd
Rock Beach
The rocky shoreline by the old pier, with Goubert Avenue running along it. Vehicles are banned on the promenade from 6 PM, which is when the whole town turns out to walk — street food, sea spray, the Gandhi statue at one end and the War Memorial at the other. The softest light is just after sunrise, when it is nearly empty.
