Thanks to aerial photographers Jānis Vītiņš, Jānis Mednis, Madars Mileiko, Mihails Ignats, Arturs Dombrovskis (Grafiskās Vides Pasaule) and I.Eliasson, we have acquired wonderful images, that gives us the opportunity to see our beloved Cape Kolka from a bird's viewpoint.
In year 2000, there used to be rather wide strip of land, covered with meadows, at the Gulf of Riga side of the Cape.

Then, as a result of strong storms, the sea approached close to forest washing away around 3 ha of land. This change can be seen in photos, taken in 2004.

During the recent years, the very top of the Cape has acquired rather wide area of white-sanded beach.
