Getting there

Checking nearby stops…

What to expect

Two rocky headlands shelter the soft, powdery sand, leaving the water still and clear - perfect swimming conditions. Leave the car at the nearby car park and walk along the headlands for panoramic views of the beach, sea and countryside. Keep an eye out for the blowhole and watch as the tide comes in and sprays out through the top.

This tranquil spot is ideal for relaxing with friends and family, so pack a picnic and make a day of it.
