I am now a subscriber to “SeaTube”.
Best place to watch the ships coming in and going under the bridge, maybe Cliff House if it’s cold but otherwise, at Land’s End where there is a little paved overlook and bench to sit on, MarineTraffic app open to see what each ship is carrying and where it’s from and under what flag. I used to like taking pictures for the wiki of cargo ships when we lived on the houseboat!
Wonderful, thanks for sharing.
