Watcombe Bay is a secluded beach that can only be reached through boat or kayak, or by abseiling down from the surrounding cliffs. Its rocky terrain makes it unsuitable for those with pushchairs. Despite its lack of amenities, visitors can explore various caves and watch resident birds that may leave a surprise on their heads. It is important to note that due to changes in tides, people have been stranded at Watcombe Bay. Therefore, it is recommended to visit with a local expert who is familiar with the area and can provide guidance on navigating its waters.
