There are two moderately large eclogite boudins on a 80 x 100 m seashore cliff. The cliff is mostly covered by grass, but gneiss and eclogites crop out along the shoreline. The eclogites have compositional layering. There are two dominant kinds of layers. The first are striking bright orange garnet-rich layers (garnetite) with very fresh omphacite partially replaced by fine plagioclase+pyroxene symplectite. The garnet composition is Pyr 32.7, Alm 36.7, Gr 30.1, Sp 0.5. The other layers are lighter-colored and dominated by plagioclase-pyroxene symplectite after omphacite and lesser garnet. However, in different places they contain abundant quartz, zoisite, plagioclase (as a replacement of zoisite), hornblende, biotite, rutile, biotite+feldspar symplectite after phengite (?), and kyanite.
