    Great beach

    Great beach, free parking, two cafes and a shop. Dog friendly. Pretty pebbles and larger pieces of alabaster. I have yet to find a fossil!
    You do need to be aware of the mud at low tide.

    Brilliant Dog Friendly Beach

    Great place to bring your dog all year round, the beach is a mixture of sand, shingle and rocks. The Hoburne Holiday Park where we stayed has a brilliant cafe with barista coffee and amazing cakes which we enjoyed and a convenient dog shower which is amazing especially after our dog buster got muddy.
