Sheltered, attractive pebbly beach at high tide. At low tide, sand and rocks are exposed with plenty of rock pools to explore. Reached via a wooded valley.

From the National Trust car park, it's a bit of a steep climb down to this secluded beach, but that makes it a good spot to escape the crowds. Sandy at low tide.
With the top part of the beach being shingle, the lower part is a complete contrast with fine yellow sand. There are many rock outcrops that become exposed when the tide recedes.
Marsland Mouth is situated at the edge of the Welcombe and Marsland Valleys Nature Reserve, a large reserve encompassing diverse fauna and flora, including a wooded valley, coastal heath and bracken-covered slopes. A small stream that runs down to the beach marks the Cornwall and Devon border.
The walk down to the shore is via a steep, narrow path but well worth the trek to enjoy the vast stretch of beautiful golden sand that awaits you!
Made up of sand and craggy outcrops, low tide reveals rocks pools to explore. The half mile walk deters the crowds.
