Straight forward puzzle but I just don't get the title? Not that it makes any difference to the solution but any enlightenment?

As usual as soon as one posts the answer comes from nowhere - I get it now.
The title is a cryptic clue for one of the formation's features to be written below the grid.
Hello Twit-who and Haggis58,
Quite agree that the clues were straightforward, and once I'd got the quote a dash to Brewer's confirmed all the unclued and what had to written below the grid.
After yesterday's rain formost of the day, today has been sunny, but a bit breezy. A pleasant stroll along the seafront this afternoon, and now enjoying a cold beer sitting in a sun-drenched conservatory!
Hi all, enjoyed doing this, and do admire the construction of it. Just one small quibble - the second of the three clues without an extra letter is at a point where an extra letter is needed for the quotation. Or have I been looking at it for too long?
My other minor problem was that ODQ claims to be number 6 but I couldn't find the quote in it. No great matter as it's so easy to find elsewhere.
That should read "my ODQ"
Hi Christiana

I have the second normal clue at 11d and the three letter word in the quotation
is made from 9,10 & 15d.
Thanks K. I'd completely missed out 10d - hadn't marked it as either normal or not but put its mark on 11d by mistake. Result of untidy handwriting
I enjoyed this puzzle. It has a well coordinated theme, which is interesting both geographically and biographically, some entertaining clues (49 & 16 Ac), some words which were new to me (37 & 38 Ac), and some wordplays which I still find baffling (47 Ac). The editorial team, though, must get on top of the indications for numbers of letters. 12 Across was 6 not 5. Not vital to the solving, but an irritating and repeated failing.
I have finished the grid, although I felt the quotation and author didn't really help with the unclued lights.
I am struggling to understand what is required for the sixth, and what else in the grid needs highlighting.
Any hints appreciated.
just got it
