10 KM
Grade A
This is a real hidden gem of a trip, a bit of coastline it would be so easy to overlook; yet it offers so much. Plenty of human history interest at the start and finish, colourful cliffs of red rocks with yellow lichens and gorses to brighten the landscape, the nesting birdlife is superb and then there is the idyllic waterfall beach landing spot.
