Catalan bay is the main beach on Gibraltar - a very popular spot. Particularly with the locals.
On a particularly warm, sunny afternoon I was sitting on the sea wall, surveying the scene below, drinking some Rose and munching through some Calamaris (squid) - still the best I have eaten.
I digress. below me was a crowded Catalan bay beach - the locals were out in force. Now these people could seriously picnic. The beach was crowded with tables, chairs, families, all tucking in to impressive looking spreads of food. A great day out.
To my surprise, I saw a fairly significant wave gathering, not quite a Tsunami but impressive nevertheless. The wave swept in from one end of the beach and engulfed the happy campers - sweeping picnics and people before it. It was very funny indeed (nobody was hurt), the wave just decimated every picnic in sight!
I couldn't help but laugh from my perch above the beach - shame on me!
