Somerset, South West
About
Huge flat beach, never worry about the crowds as the beach is so long!
Large carpark easy access to beach with café showers and shops. Huge car park with automatic number plate recognition, just pay before you leave with cash or card!
Massive beach with loads or room can be a long walk at low tide.
Kite and foil area is south of white rock (literally a rock painted white at the bottom of the dunes) approx. 250m south of main beach entrance.
No Known permeant obstacle’s in the water however stay away from cliffs at northern end of the beach. Southern end of the beach by river mouth can have exposed stones .
Waves can get very large but are fatter and slower to break than at Woolacombe.
Ideal wind direction S to WNW . NNW is often very gusty unless at the very southern end of the beach.
Saunton Sands measures at over 3 miles of stunning golden sand and plays host to some of the best surf in the country – when the conditions are right!
Found between the villages of Braunton and Croyde, it is often the first beach that visitors to the area come across and provides a visually stunning introduction to the regional coastline. Arriving by the B3231 from Braunton the main entrance is a turning on the left after Saunton Sands Golf Club and before Saunton Sands hotel.
Massive thanks to West Kitebaording for location updates.
