About Beesands
The tiny fishing village of Beesands ticks all the boxes for a seaside holiday. Its mile-long stretch of pebble beach is backed by rolling hills and rugged headlands. Traditional fisherman's cottages line the seafront and boast stunning, far reaching views over Start Bay.
The beautiful beach has plenty of space for everyone, including dogs as there are no seasonal beach bans. The golden pebbles quickly shelve into crystal clear water, making Beesands beach a popular spot for anglers, sea swimming, and a variety of water sports.
The South West Coast Path runs right through Beesands, offering spectacular views no matter which way you head. Head westward over the headland to the lost village of Hallsands and discover the ruins of buildings swept away to sea or set off in the opposite direction to reach Torcross, Slapton Ley Nature Reserve and Slapton Sands beach.
Beesands is home to a brilliant, dog-friendly village pub, The Cricket Inn, which serves tasty locally-sourced food. For delicious, freshly caught seafood, look no further than Britannia @ The Beach. The menus at this rustic beachside 'shack' change daily depending on what the fishermen have landed, but fish and chips is always on the menu! With a takeaway service, you can tuck in to yours on the beach. The Shack also doubles up as a fishmonger and village store where you can pick up your holiday essentials.
For a variety of shops, supermarkets, cafés, pubs and restaurants, Kingsbridge is only seven miles away, and the historic port town of Dartmouth is only a little further in the opposite direction. Both towns have a cinema, leisure centre and plenty to see and do.
