Beach Fencing

 Fencing on foggy day, Plum Island, Massachusetts

I was visiting the New England coast last weekend and my biggest request was to see the ocean. I LOVED that salty sea air!. So refreshing!

Slightly different view

I am linking to Good Fences HERE

That fence looks like it has been there for a long time.

I can almost taste the salt. :-)

Good Morning, EG! I love the beach and salty air too. Awesome fence shots. Have a happy day!

Yogi♪♪♪ said...

Great shots, it looks old but still functioning. It looks like they are trying hard to stabilize the beach.

the salt air blowing off the Atlantic ocean is one of our most favorite things in the world. and the sound at night of the wind and roar of surf... nothing like the Atlantic beaches.

I'd love to have a wander along there... so beautiful and serene.

Darla said...

I too like wandering along the waters edge on a beach. The fence looks a bit wobbly.

Looks great to me from any angle, look at those homes in the background.Who wouldn't want to live there? I know I would!

TexWisGirl said...

sure is pretty!

This is a classic beach view ... beautifully done, EGC ... I agree there is something invigorating about the fresh salty air of the ocean. I can almost smell it now ...

It looks like a fence in my area!:) Have a nice day!

Tanya Breese said...

it sure is beautiful!

Kathy said...

I suppose only on the beach would you see fences like these. Just like the dunes, they look like they've been blown by the wind.

The beach houses in New England are so different from the ones down south. Been a long time since I was on the coastline up there!

I can almost smell the salt air in your photos. Lovely.

I agree with your feelings about the seaside. I once wanted to live along the Pacific Ocean. Now, I feel it is just better to visit once in awhile. The coast is a harsh environment.

Sylvia K said...

Ah, I do love the beaches whether New England or the Pacific northwest!! The old fence is terrific and I bet it could tell some great stories!! Wonderful captures as always, EG, thanks for sharing the beauty -- as always!! Hope your week is going well!

Beautiful fences, lovely view, I so long for the beach like this as well!

Rose said...

I don't know why, but I always love these beach fences...there is just something about them that is so appealing. Maybe because they don't always go in a straight line. But I know that isn't all of it.

What Karen Sees said...

Gives me an idea of what it would be like to have a cottage right on the beach. So peaceful and beautiful.

Susan said...

I wanna go! Beautiful!

Coloring Outside the Lines said...

Near the top of my bucket list- oh I hope I can see New England one of these days. Beautiful.

VP said...

A curious fence and an unusual coastline, at least for us...

Anvilcloud said...

Great fence photos.

Margaret Birding For Pleasure said...

Lovely quiet beach but the fence is a bit wobbly

Lowell said...

That is a part of the country I've not seen before - I've been to the coast in Connecticut and New Hampshire but not Massachusetts. Your photos are very enticing! It's a different kind of scene from what you'd find in Florida.

William Kendall said...

The fences look like they've been there a great long time.

Jan n Jer said...

Always love a nice beach scene.

RedPat said...

So different from Lake Simcoe, EG!

Hello from the other side!!! :-)

Those graceful sand fences are one of the things I'll always remember about our trip up the East Coast. I'm so glad you got to the see the Ocean!!!

Hannah said...

The houses call up visions of movies I've seen. I'm imagining the fences keeping their front yards from washing away. Very quaint, it looks like a great spot for a vacation.

Lois said...

Lovely shots! I grew up near the ocean and there is nothing like the smell of salt air and the sound of the waves crashing on the shore.

Ida said...

Wonderful ocean views and fences. Looks like a great place to visit for sure.

Randy said...

Nice looking beach.

Stephanie said...

Beautiful scenery! Love the fencing!

GreenComotion said...

Thanks for the reminder to go to a beach, Tina.
The fences are unique and lovely.
Have a Wonderful Day!
Peace :)

Maude Lynn said...

So pretty!

Linda W. said...

Nice fence photos! Yep, I love the ocean too.

Kay said...

You've really caught my idea of an Atlantic beach and a coastal mood in general. Wonderful shots. (I live within a mile of salt water and never tire of the scent and the mood of it.)

Pauline said...

Beautiful images. That's a fence design I've never seen at the beach. Here, at least. I wonder if the fence works in some way to hold back the sand?

Indrani said...

Looks worn out with wind. Great pics.

Jeevan said...

Interesting captures and view on the fences!

PerthDailyPhoto said...

That gorgeous sea air is why I love living by the coast EG :) love these dune fences.

Celestina Marie said...

These photos just speak to my heart. Love the beach fence! Great shots.

Beautiful scenes. It's been a long time since I saw the ocean.

Unknown said...

I love beach fencing, it always makes for a good picture and with fog it's perfect...hope you enjoyed the trip...

Jack said...

I can practically smell the sea air in these pix!

CountryMum said...

Beach fences always intrigue me. This one looks like it has stood the test of time... for now anyway.

Pamela Gordon said...

I love NH's coastline. We've been to Hampton Beach which is so beautiful and the homes and cottages are gorgeous. The dune fencing has a good purpose and I see that some grasses have been planted to keep the dunes in place too. Lovely coastal photos. I also like the ones of the old Quaker house.
