Families flock to the seaside village thanks to its soft sandy beach, seasonal lifeguard cover and facilities.

There's even a fish and chip takeaway, Fryer Tucks, and in our opinion, no holiday in Challaborough is complete without tucking into fish 'n' chips on the beach whilst watching the sunset!
If one beach just isn't enough, the South West Coast Path runs right past Challaborough, so you can walk along the headland and find your favourite spot. Head east to Bigbury on Sea where you can catch the famous sea tractor to Burgh Island, or learn to surf, SUP and kayak courtesy of Discovery Surf School. Alternatively, set off westwards to Arymer Cove and Westcombe Beach. Whilst the walk is much more challenging, these picturesque coves are lovely and peaceful - you might even find you have the whole beach to yourself!
