Beach fun
Hele Bay is a short walk away from the Holiday park. The bay is great for paddling, swimming and paddle boarding. There's a cafe on the beach which is currently doing take away including chips, pasties, ice creams and drinks.
Directions: leave the holiday park and follow the road round until you get back to the main road, Watermouth Road, turn right down towards the garage and the pub. Turn left by the pub down Beach Road which leads down to the bay.

Beautiful beach at the far end of the Woolacombe stretch. Its expensive to park (£10 a day in summer) but well worth it for a beach day. There is a cafe and Beach shop and very clean toilets. A favourite place for us!

A small but beautiful sand cove in Woolacombe, great for swimming. There's a beach hut that sells yummy Sri Lankan curry here too.

Stunning views here with a dramatic double cove and shingle beach and an island lookout. Lots of steps to get down but worth the views!

Food Scene
The pub has great views across the bay and is very close by. The food is average pub food, slightly overpriced for what it is, but the view is worth it.
