This is a lovely sandy beach perfect for all-year swims. It’s also a good starting point if would rather walk up the coast to a quieter swimming spot. Cafe and public toilets are open in the warmer months.
Location
Getting there
If travelling by car make sure you have money for parking. The car park is located besides the beach. If travelling by bike be prepared to lug them through the dunes a bit and there are no obvious places to lock them up.
Accessibility
You’ll be navigating a few sandy dunes to access the beach. No problem for sure footed folk, but extra care needed if you have trouble on uneven surfaces.
