Boscastle

Not strictly a beach, this pretty harbour is worth a visit. Boscastle was hit by severe flooding in 2004 and there are markers on various building of how high the water levels rose.

Walk down from the car park, have a drink in the Cobweb inn and you'll pass various shops and places to eat.

The path along side the stream takes you down to the small harbour, with fishing boats and you may see the gig rowing club out on their boat. You can continue to walk along the coast path, or just sit down with some fish and chips from Sharon's plaice, take in the view and keep and eye out in case you spot a seal.
