Woodcombe Sand Beach
One of a number of rarely visited little coves tucked away between Prawle Point and Start Point. Set at the foot of steep, verdant cliffs Woodcombe Sand is something of a mission to get to. With no nearby parking you’re best off walking around from Start Point, but most will agree it is well worth the effort.

Fairly sheltered, Woodcombe has a good-sized patch of sand flanked by low rocky platforms. These are home to a good number of rock pools and there is a gap between the rocks where you can easily enter the water.
All in all Woodcombe Sand is a lovely spot that is remote enough that it doesn’t need to be a secret. Sitting on the southern tip of Devon you’ll never see a crowd here.
