At end of Sand Street go through gate and down to the shore. Turn right and follow the thin path through the grassy area above the coastline. It can be muddy or wet and there are some big pools of water beside the path, be aware if going on to shoreline where sand starts - it is a tidal area with possible quick sand further out - best to keep dogs on lead. When you reach the end of the path at the river it is best to turn and walk back the same way.
Track type: worn path over grass area. Only suitable for those more able as not easiest terrain.
Hazards: Possible sinking sand in areas, best not to walk on sand. The sand is a tidal area. The path can be muddy and wet in winter.
Highlights: Wildlife, coastal plants, views across Broadbay.
Facilities: Parking at end of Sand Street. No facilities or seating.
