Tides around Mont Saint Michel

This is the view out to sea from the abbey at Mont Saint Michel where the Benedictine Monks (still) live.You can see for a 100km out. They say the tide comes in as fast as a galloping horse. It's not uncommon for people/tourists to drown or get caught in quicksand if they aren't careful/mindful of the time. If you look carefully you can see the tiny tiny people on tours of the bay. This place was so interesting to me because I've never been in a place that was so elegant and dangerous at the same time.

Mont Saint Michel

I didn't even know this fortress existed until I was driving down the Normandy coast. Waaaay out in the distance into the ocean you just saw this castle thing and I said I want to go there!
