Having climbed on a rocky outcrop on the southern side of Saligo River I enjoyed this beautiful view across the river and over Saligo Bay, with a well known rock formation nicely visible on the horizon.

I was slightly nervous waiting to take this picture, as of course the waves were unpredictable and I didn’t want to get me and more importantly my camera soaked with salt water. But I managed to stay dry and get this shot of a wave rolling up the beach in Saligo Bay and breaking over the rocks near the southern end, throwing spray high up in the air.
