We tried not to make eye contact with the bodies as we stepped over them to reach the staircase. The sand was slowly but surely eating away at them, still fast enough for us to watch them sink and loud enough for us to hear their flesh being shredded beneath our feet.
We should have stayed on the rocks and climbed up that way but the staircase was so close by and the sand that had drifted into the carpark hadn't attacked us when we arrived so we assumed it would be fine. We assumed we could just step over the bodies and dash up the staircase and it would all be fine.
It was very much not.
