Southwold Pier at high tide creates lots of spectacular waves  and spray - it's easy to get soaked! #perspective

Nice town but gets very busy with tourists.
Southwold is described as the jewel of Suffolk's Heritage Coast, and it does not disappoint. 
With its famous pier, lighthouse and beach huts, Southwold is certainly one of the most popular resorts in East Anglia. 
Granted a Royal Charter back in 1489 by Henry VII, Southwold has a fascinating history and many links with the past can still be seen all over the town. 
The centre piece is the magnificent church, with its 100 foot tower and dedicated to the last king of East Anglia, St Edmund. Nearby, the lighthouse, also 100 feet tall, has given safe passage to sailors and fishermen since 1890.
The pier and its history are closely connected to that of Southwold. Its original use was, of course, practical – it was a landing stage for the steamships which arrived from London Bridge.

When you're the only person on the pier with this view, you wonder why no one else has gotten out of bed for sunrise!
I loved the reflections in the windows
