If you look at the video I posted above at 2:55 exactly you can see the sea wall sloping off to the distance at an angle, that was a camera pan from the south to the north, that compound contains the US Embassy, the H2O is a few more hundred yards further round the coast after the Embassy, maybe they are trying to fill in that piece as well but as for Baywalk I've only ever seen the water go up and down a bit but I've never seen it tidally recede. I doubt you could create a beach at the H2O as I think it might have been recovered ground already. You have to remember that they were planning to reclaim the whole bay area in front of Baywalk at one point including the Marina and more much like the reclamation project that produced MOA, that would ahve moved the promenade way out into what is currently sea. And all that in an earthquake prone area, I wonder if liquefaction was ever considered in the construction of some of these reclamation projects. This is a screengrab by the way not the video. This is the bridge they are standing on and you can see the sea wall of the Embassy stretching off into the distance.
Ah I see. You stayed there once John didn't you? I really enjoyed my visits to the aquarium with the kids, only been there twice sadly.
I stayed for a week overall. But had a couple of days away in Boracay (didn’t check out of H2O) during that stay.
The couple of times I ever stayed in a hotel we checked out and left out luggage in the lobby in order to go get a weekend in Boracay, the people I was travelling with just reckoned that was the natural thing to do and it wasn't as if the rooms were expensive they were only 20 quid a night. Luggage is a problem though if you want to do additional travel within the country.
That being the case we need to alert those that live up in the North East of England where dolomite lurks in abundance. “The Magnesian Limestone is a suite of carbonate rocks in north-east England dating from the Permian period. The outcrop stretches from Nottingham northwards through Yorkshire and into County Durham where it is exposed along the coast between Hartlepool and South Shields.[1]The term has now been discontinued in formal use though it appears widely in popular and scientific literature on the geology of northern England.“ The Magnesian Limestone comprises of dolomite. The local population and fishermen are obviously unaware of the toxic menace on their doorstep. The Magnesian Limestone (dolomite) in the North East is an aquifer. Shock horror.
