Access

On street parking on Wakeham Road, then take Church Ope Road to Rufus Castle and then follow the coast path down to the cove. A steep walk down to the cove.

Description

A stone/pebble beach with some sand at low tide. Steeply shelving and faces SE. Strong currents out to sea, so most swimming should be kept close to the shore. A great sun trap on a sunny summer's day in beautiful surroundings.
