Island 534 - Inner Colvel Rock, Bryher, Isles of Scilly

Inner Colvel Rock is a small rocky tidal island, located 100 metres off the south west coast of Bryher.  Grass, red escallonia bushes, scurvy grass, sea beet and thrift grow on the island. The rocks are covered in gold and grey-green lichens.  The first part of the crossing is across a sandy beach, but there are some rocks to scramble over closer to the island.

I think this rock looks a bit like a turtle
