This is a mainly sandy beach which is only accessible by walking (it is a walk not for the faint hearted!). There is a pay and display car park at Sharkham point but the remainder of the journey is on foot - the scenery is worth the walk.
Ensure you take plenty of refreshments and food for a picnic on the beach - there are no facilities at this beach at all.

City/town information
Brixham is one of the few remaining fully working fishing ports in England and has one of the largest fishing fleets in the UK. The harbour is the focal point of the small town which is surrounded by restaurants and bars. A replica of the Golden Hind sits in the harbour and is a wonderful way of stepping back in time to the Tudor Age. If you are a budding artist you will be inspired by the views from the harbour and weather permitting you may see one of the local artists working at artists corner on the Strand. There are plenty of sandy beaches just a short drive away 10 - 15 minutes and there is a pebble beach located in between the Marina and Shoalstone Seawater pool - which is a sea water outdoor pool/lido 53 mtrs in length.
