Sable Island: Looking at Sand

		For ninety minutes out of Halifax you see only sea and sky.

Then comes your first view of Sable Island — a golden arc in the blue Atlantic.
Approaching for landing on the beach, you can make out sand dunes rising from sandy plains.

On the beach, the soft ripples seem to go on forever. After a windy day here, your shoes, your teeth and your hair will be gritty with sand.
