spot

Ein Tourismustext über die Bucht von Dublin:

...every year over 500,000 people walk by the shores of Dublin Bay, swim in it and enjoy its beaches. ..There are dozens of beaches dotted along the coast, three of them have been awarded blue flags, and most offer the usual amenities. Better yet, nature lovers can seal spot as they often pay a visit close to the shoreline.

Was ist spot hier?
Herzlichen Dank im voraus für eure Hilfe.
