Comment
Sandy Bay is a beach located on a small bay on the eastern Mediterranean coast of Gibraltar. Directly above Sandy Bay and the Sir Herbert Miles coast road were Gibraltars large water catchments, which are no longer in use. The slope on which they sat is the Great Gibraltar Sand Dune, an ancient consolidated sand dune which dominates the east side of the Rock of Gibraltar.
