We went in a chilly day which is fine as we love to hear the waves crashing! It’s not wheelchair accessible unfortunately! Lots of rock pools for everyone to enjoy! Just got careful for the cliffs…Full review by Road31435324199

As long as you get the rides right this is a lovely beach with good space and waves. Lifeguards on duty. The walk down/back is a little steep but worth it.Full review by Kim W

No, not really. And it's a 30-minute hike down (and then back up) the quite steep road - alas! The car park is also quite steep in places!

Not one of the best in the area for surfing... but hope the following helps! Sandymouth - the northerly end of the sandy beach running about two miles down to Bude. The beach faces west and works best with light easterly winds. Wave quality depends on the position of the sandbanks which can change from tide to tide. It is usually a typical beach break with no defined peaks. But watch out for the rip currents which can be ferocious in surf over five feet (1.5m). Not suitable for beginners. Widemouth Bay - the principal surf break in the area, attracting surfers of all ages and abilities on all kinds of craft. An ideal beach for learners although it can be hard getting outside the broken surf West facing, it works well at all stages of the tide but towards the high tide waves get faster and more hollow. Dawn patrols are particularly rewarding here, often giving glassy, uncrowded conditions. Boards are available for hire on the beach and tuition is available at two nearby adventure centres.
