Sand storm wind on the beach over the dunes of Dishoek.

🌪️ It's a stormy day on the beach at Dishoek in the Netherlands. Wind and sand whip across the shore, rushing through the narrow gaps between the beach huts. The microphone is tucked away behind one of the huts. In the distance, you can hear the sand a flag and a plastic back flapping wildly in the wind. Along the dunes, sand swirls between the tufts of marram grass, carried upward by the gusts as if the beach itself is breathing with the storm.
