Full of history but unfortunately a lot of the stalls were not staffed so unable to play ! We ended up giving 12 of our tokens to a family coming in. It would of been fun to enjoy them but only a few of the rides had staff so very disappointed with what it cost to enter

Millook isn’t really a bathing beach but is well known amongst experience surfers, fishermen and those who enjoy some peace and quiet to observe the abundant wildlife – seals and dolphins are often spotted here as well as waders and birds of prey. The beach is also of great geological interest mainly for the imposing Penalt Cliff which towers above it.

At the end of a narrow valley, surrounded by towering cliffs, backing into the village of Crackington, Crackington Haven Beach offers shelter from the elements but only by comparison to the exposed coastline. The beach is all rocks and shingle, and has a seasonal ban on dogs from Easter to October. There’s parking at the beach, so remember to take cash for pay and display, and there are two cafes, a pub, surf hire and toilet facilities close by. There’s also lifeguard cover in the height of summer.
Lovely location on a sunny day.

Lovely cove and beach, ample parking and facilities with a great café and pub. Beach is predominantly stones - which are beautiful and unique - life guard on duty and big waves - some care needed in the sea with seaweed and some dips - well worth a visit.

The wild Blackrock Beach is found on the south side of Widemouth Bay but becomes isolated at high tide. The point and reef breaks here make is a well known spot for surfers, and the rock pools exposed at low tide draw families and nature lovers of all ages to this lovely spot. The cool little café here serves a tasty brunch or lunch including some great seafood.

Three miles south of Bude, Widemouth Bay Beach is a long, open bay that’s popular with families and surfers, while at low tide there are hundreds of rock pools to explore. It’s a wonderful place to learn to surf or body board thanks to fantastic conditions and lots of local surf schools in the surrounding area. There’s free parking at both ends of the bay as well as viewing points. Dogs are welcome throughout the year on the south section of the beach, otherwise known as Black Rock, but on the northern part there are seasonal dog bans. It has a wild feel to it, which adds to its appeal, and there is lifeguard cover in the summer, but nonetheless do be careful when swimming.
Lovely clean beach. Dogs enjoyed it!
