Bouldner Bay - Isle of Wight
Bouldner Bay is just along the coast from Bouldnor Cliff, a drowned landscape which runs parallel to the island' s north shore. The site dates from the Mesolithic period and was occupied by humans between 8,400 and 8,000 years ago. The bay is submerged at high tide but at low tide access is available to some incredible scenes of coastal erosion and trees which give you a reminder of those long gone prehistoric days.
