What you'll need🧤
Warm Clothing☂️
Waterproofs📋
Other - Good footwear. Coastal rocks can be sharp or they can be slippery - even more of a hazard at night. So thick soles with good grips are recommended; wellies are perfect. Old trainers are good too but make sure you rinse the salt off them afterwards.
