The Submerged Bridge Over Biel Water in Belhaven Bay | Amazing Images.
The Biel Water is a small river running through the village of Biel
to the south of Dunbar, in Scotland. It runs for 4.5 kilometers from the
Luggate Burn and the Whittinghame Water, through the village and
finally to Belhaven Bay. Just before it empties into the North Sea, the
river – actually a small stream – flows under a short footbridge. At low
tide, it’s possible to walk over the bridge, crossing the stream and
onto sands that lay beyond. However, when the tide comes in, the bridge
gets submerged and appears to be stranded in the middle of the sea
serving no obvious purpose to surprised onlookers. Photographing
the bridge at high tide is hence a favorite activity among tourists and
beach goers. Belhaven Bay itself is a beautiful beach, located within
the John Muir Country Park, in one of the sunniest part of Scotland. The
beach stretches from Belhaven to the north of the River Tyne. It is
fringed by low, sheltering sand dunes, rich salt marsh and colourful
grasslands, and is ideal for walking, having picnics and sunbathing and
affords splendid views across the Forth Estuary.
