Figure 3a: A high-angle photograph of Ravenspoint spit showing a long, narrow strip of sand and shingle extending from the mainland coastline out into an estuary. On the seaward side to the left, active waves break on a sandy beach. On the sheltered landward side to the right, there is a calm, green saltmarsh area with tidal creeks.
