Gorgeous beach! Took our horses here Wednesday morning for a ride was barely a soul in sight. Very easy to find & great parking for horse boxes. Signed well, & kept lovely we didn’t see any litter or used bbq’s floating about which was lovely. Just a stunning beach, highly recommend to fellow equestrians!

Beautiful wide sandy beach 😍 A wee climb over sandy dunes, so not accessible for those with mobility issues. Dogs & kids had a great time, and the beach stretches for miles so plenty of space for everyone on busy sunny days ☀️🏖️😎

It’s a beach with vast expanse of clean, light sand and beautiful wildlife. Ideal for peaceful walks and family picnics. The beach is accessible via a 10-minute walk over the dunes, ample parking is available.
