Taken in 2008, we found red kelp/seaweed on the sand at Waverley Beach. Never saw it again.

What an odd, one time occurrence, and how wonderful that you captured it!
ReplyDeleteWow! Those are gorgeous rocks!
ReplyDelete...I've never seen red either!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of red kelp. What a lovely beach!
ReplyDeleteVery interesting event! Love the expansive perspective and composition of the image
ReplyDeleteThose caves look interesting. They must be filled with pirate treasure.
ReplyDeleteHere in Florida, we get red tide too. But it's a bad thing. Since you're on the opposite side of the world, maybe its a good thing!
ReplyDeletehow wonderful and strange to walk on that beach. I wish I had been there. :)
ReplyDeleteIt makes one wonder why so much seaweed should come ashore at one time. I saw it happen at Omokoroa once, with green sea lettuce, and the amount was phenomenal. The rock formation is very interesting in your photo. Thanks for hosting this link-up :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Betty, for hosting MCoW and sharing your photo of the unusual red kelp.
ReplyDeleteWow! That beach looks otherworldly. So beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteAn impressive place with its large caves
ReplyDeleteI read something about red kelp but for the life of me can't remember...will come back if my coffee brings it up again...

ReplyDeleteNever seen before. Its very interesting.

Greetings Eva

Wow! for the red kelp but especially for the landscape!
ReplyDeleteAll the best! ❤️

Interesting seaweed, but it is the rock cliffs that caught my attention - great photo!
ReplyDeleteWhat a strange place! I like it a lot. A little bit science fiction.
ReplyDeleteHappy WW and thank you for the linking!
Quite a view!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
What a great shot and I've not seen red kelp before. Also this shot makes us look so small next to mother nature.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous Wordless Wednesday, Betty. ♥
These cavities are really great to look at!
ReplyDeleteIf I remember correctly, the red kelp is caused by a single cell algae but is not dangerous. I remember being in Newport, RI with my daughter and the beach and everyone was all excited about "the red tide" (red seaweed being washed ashore)...:)JP Happy Thanksgiving
ReplyDeleteI had no idea that red seaweed existed. It's a beautiful shade. :)
ReplyDeleteI've never seen red kelp. Lucky you to be in the right place at the right time. Love the arches!
ReplyDeleteA lovely photograph.
ReplyDeleteThe seaweed is an unusual colour isn't it.
All the best Jan
