Original Note:
Mount Saint Michel lies in a megatidal basin, and both pics are taken at low tide, with over 14m of variation (and raising). Authorities have dammed the Couesnon river to both control silt and water levels. Other nearby locations do are suffering from rising sea levels: https://www.connexionfrance.com/article/French-news/Rising-sea-levels-provoke-exodus-from-northern-French-coastline#:~:text=Rising%20water%20levels%20in%20Normandy,relocations%20away%20from%20cliff%20edges.
