The facilities that were open where great and I would encourage everyone to get behind the local businesses while the through road is shut. Skyler our labradaughter had the best time too. · via Google [Stephen Pearce](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/114050304603274493159/reviews) ★★★★★ Fabulpus beach. Very gentle slope to sand. Great calm swimming. Would be better if steps were changed to gradient for wheelchairs and prams · via Google [Luke Stacey](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/100295836219228325149/reviews) ★★★★★ A beautiful, unspoiled spot with unbelievable views. The area has clearly been struck hard by the devastating storm and needs help to survive. We will be back to visit again soon. Be sure to visit the Start Bay inn and respect the natural beauty of the area. · via Google [gav perry](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/100874981978683868222/reviews) ★★★★★ I just love it down this neck of woods, it really is a beautiful part of the world, with fantastic views as well. A great area to walk and relax and the added bonus for me my passion of military history, Slapton Sands, Exercise Tiger and the Tank memorial. I thoroughly recommend visiting and touring this area. · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x486d21d33eb13675:0xb5ae7deb4127ca31!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) Visitors say this beach offers a laid-back vibe, beautiful views, and clear water, with a traditional pub and cafe nearby for refreshments.
