EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph taken in the 1970s, two young brothers are seen enjoying a sunny day at the harbour in St Ives, Cornwall. Dressed in striped teeshirts and shorts, they eagerly explore the shallow waters, paddling in the crystal-clear sea with plastic buckets in hand. The boys' focus is on the small boat named "Josephine" moored nearby, its rudder and chain visible as they investigate its intricacies. The coastal town of St Ives, with its picturesque harbour and sandy beaches, has long been a popular holiday destination in Cornwall, England. The 1960s and 1970s marked a significant period of growth for the resort, attracting families and holidaymakers seeking leisure and relaxation by the sea. This image captures the essence of a simpler time, evoking memories of carefree summers spent by the coast. The boys' curiosity and enjoyment are palpable, as they make the most of their day at the harbour, creating cherished moments that will last a lifetime. The boat "Josephine" adds a touch of history to the scene, reminding us of the rich maritime heritage that defines St Ives and the surrounding Cornish coast. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of the seaside and the joy that comes from spending time with family and loved ones.
