No I live right by the Solent and get a fantastic view of the Isle of Wight and all the shipping and cruise ships coming out of Southampton plus all the yachts and other water users.It's never the same from day to day.

Re: View the beauty of this place
It really depends on what it is really like. It could be like the photos of beaches in Thailand....They look stunning but in reality are packed with tourists, millions of boats, and concrete hotels surrounding them.
Maybe not the same temperature, but I have been to a good few hideen places in the Lake district or Scotland that are just as beautiful with waterfalls and crystal white sand.

It's on an Indian reservation, so will be well managed in my experience (having toured that area a couple of years ago). It's also pretty tricky to get to.
However, you can't go at the moment because it's closed:

Sounds good then. Lets all meet there for a forum meet up.
Although the waterfall might affect my wifi signal.

Spent some good times down there on a speed boat out towards the forts and over to the Isle of Wight.

Almost neighbours. I've got a small place just along from where you are describing. I can see the Isle of Wight and Muddiford/Hengistbury Head/Purbeck
