Tern Roost
A great spot for gulls, terns and shorebirds around low water. In the winter the shorebirds can be found on the sand away from the beach.
Join the beach after walking through the empty land next to the final construction shell on the north end. You will see the rocks at the shoreline. Move quickly past the area with the black pipe otherwise soldiers will come and question you from the nearby building. Keep the camera pointing towards the sea and not inland.
Update: best to enter from the southern end near Al Dora Residence and walk along the shoreline. Stop before reaching the black pipe and being asked to leave. There is a large rock to sit next to.
