It's when you climb out of the sea onto the sand, or perhaps onto that rocky promontory over there, and waggle your flippers to provide forward propulsion on land.

No doubt when the oil runs out, the rocky promontory will be colonised by a new elite.

It sits on a rocky promontory with a couple of other properties, and there are steps down from the pool, through the garden, to the cove immediately beneath.
