Local beaches & golf courses

Summerleaze
This is the closest beach to the town of Bude, with level access from Summerleaze car park, but also approachable via the Downs or Canal at low tide. When the tide is out there is a huge expanse of clean fine sand.

Crooklets
Bude's other town beach has often been called the "Bondi of Britain" as it was here the country's first life saving club was formed in 1953. Crooklets provides ideal conditions for surfers.

Sandymouth
A National Trust car park can lead you to this lovely beach.

Sandymouth beach

Widemouth Bay
Two large beaches in one with over 2 miles of open sand at low tide. A great family beach which always has plenty of space, as well as a popular venue for surfers.

Crackington Haven
This cove is flanked by 430ft cliffs. The sandy area is bordered by low reefs and provides numerous rock pools to explore.

Northcott Mouth
A beautiful sandy beach which at low tide can extend to Crooklets beach. It features some intriguing geology and many secluded spots.

Duckpool
A romantic little cove at the end of Combe Valley. Not recommended for swimming but has a lovely sandy beach.

Strangles
The High Cliff, at over 731ft, is the highest in Cornwall. The descent to the beach is very steep, but well worth a visit for its sheer magnitude.
