Yeo Point





Yeo Point itself is not a beach, but a rocky promontory at the north end of Ruckle Park on the southeastern corner of Saltspring Island. But it shelters a small, gravelly pocket beach on its south side. Nothing remarkable, but wonderfully quiet and secluded early on a weekday morning. More photos at hshipman.

On the north side of the point, there is an even smaller beach - probably not a beach at all by normal folks' standards. It's basically an accumulation of sand and gravel-size shell fragments (it's the only sediment available) pushed up onto the rocky ledges.
