Gorgeous little beach

Gorgeous little beach with rocks, shingle and sand. Popular with swimmers as its sheltered and shallow, it has benches to sit on and a swimmers platform too which the seals also like to use. Perfect.

Perfectly safe little beach

Great little beach available before high tide. Not sandy so need footwear and a bit of bravery as water fresh. My 6 year old loved it.
