Fast service, friendly staff. Always grab a portion of cheesy chips there after a walk with a pint of creamy Guinness. I hear the roast is good value for money too.
Lovely place to go rock pooling and a great beach for dogs. Can also find alot of sea glass there to
I thought this beach was OK. Its not very pretty or picturesque. The water is still clear and there is sand at the back of the beach. There's a big pipe leading out to sea which for me just gives sewage vibes. There is a road right next to it so easy parking and a set of wooden steps down.
Haven’t visited for a long time since the asbestos clean up (I hope the caught and prosecuted those responsible). I had forgotten how beautiful the views are and how easy and accessible the beach is (at least this sunny Sunday afternoon). The youngest thoroughly enjoyed playing on the beach. Will be back for sure, as thankfully still dog friendly, so have someone else at home who’s be keen to visit. EAs a great way to get outside for an hour! There is a cafe and proper car park nearby though didn’t use either as lots of street parking and came with snacks.
Used to live close by in Turnchapel. Always thought this rocky-stony beach was underused. Its now becoming more frequented by families. Access is OK with decent parking (free). The steps are steep for anyone who has mobility problems and access to the water is partly restricted by rocks. South facing with good views across the sound. Plenty of boatyards adjacent and some cafes/shops and art businesses beginning to establish themselves. Good pubs in Turnchapel and at Mountbatten all walkable, as is the Mountbatten breakwater. Its popular with canoeists. Can get impressively stormy in winter. As you can see from the pic - fun for dogs!
Great place to launch your SUP. Nice rockpools when the tide is out. Dog friendly as well.
Really quiet, went at lunchtime when tide was going out. Plenty of life in the rockpools which was good to see, plenty of craft on the water, large and small. Good place to sit and vegitate.
It's a shame there's no reviews to this beach! I found it accidentally while actually looking for another beach which I didn't find lol. It's a lovely place to walk or relax with friends/family or by yourself! As I walked past houses to get to the beach, on the other side of the road was a great view of boats and Plymouth! So go here and enjoy the view! There was also a massive grey cloud which I thought looked pretty cool tbh!
