Description
An oblique aerial photograph, taken looking west, of Mulberry B (Port Winston) and the coastline at Gold Beach.
At centre left is the town of Arromanches-les-Bains from which three floating piers lead to their pier heads. At lower centre is the settlement of Saint-Côme-de-Fresné, from which a fourth floating pier leads to its pier head. To the west and seaward of the piers are lines of breakwaters, comprising scuttled ships and concrete caissons.
At bottom right is the westernmost part of the town of Asnelles.
It is a scene of activity with several ships and smaller vessels moving about.
