Beesands Beach

Backed by a large area of grassland and a freshwater lake.

A mile long shingle beach in very quiet rural location. A sea wall protects the line of cottages and a pub that make up Beesands. The small village, with a public house and shop, lies behind a long shingle ridge. Behind the beach, Widdicombe Ley freshwater lake and grasslands provides an ideal location for wildlife and an opportunity for birdwatching.

Behind the beach and car park is the village green and freshwater Widdicombe Ley, both of which are important sites for wildlife.
