The last park of the walk is around or if your feeling fit up a massive sand dune. It’s a stunning beach to visit, it’s also very clean.

The landscape along this coastline is stunning with rocky outcrops and hidden golden sand coves with lapping clear blue seas. Red point beach is just one of many that are depict this description. We wild camped there for one night as part of a road trip - well worth it. We were mostly alone on the beach, sharing the beach with sheep mainly as few people visit this bay, and were lucky enough to have lovely sunshine for most of our stay. Brilliant spot if you want to escape people. But, if you do visit, please respect the dune system and environment generally. It is a sensitive habitat and prone to human disturbance (there were fire scars on the ground from previous campers and the dunes were showing signs of deterioration due to people wandering off the main tracks and blow holes appearing, etc.).

A bit hard to get there if it's wet as you need to go through gate which is usually muddy.
