General Description
Im not that great at writing about surf spots but i have body boarded here and there were a few of us out so it must be an alright place to go....its at the bottom of a cliff next to a military firing range they do have lifeguards there in the summer. It has got cliffs to either side of it and a few rocks but generally a nice large beach to muck about on. Crowd wise for surfing i didnt think it was that bad but tourist wise for the beach it gets quite full.
General Info
How to get there
head towards millbrook from the torpoint ferry or from the A38, as you come round the top of the cliff you will see the fort where the range is and its down from there.
Where to Stay
Torpoint or in Plymouth
Access & Parking Info / Cost
Parking at top of cliff for free, its a walk down the cliff to the beach.
Equipment Hire
Dont remeber there being hire shops but there are surf shops in Plymouth where you can buy your own gear.
When its Flat?
Plenty of pubs....its a military training area so bars are plentiful in Plymouth and good selection in Torpoint.
