This wild and windswept beach near Bude showcases Cornwall's rugged character, where dramatic rock formations create natural sculptures against crashing Atlantic waves. Popular with surfers and coastal walkers, it offers uncrowded conditions and spectacular clifftop scenery, while the nearby coastal path leads to historic Morwenstow village with its fascinating church and eccentric Victorian history. The beach's wild nature means it's not ideal for families with young children, but provides unforgettable experiences for those appreciating dramatic natural beauty and raw ocean power. The lack of development preserves its authentic character and geological significance.
