Putsborough Beach

Highlight • Parking

Putsborough is the much quieter end of Woolacombe Bay, but with the same wide expanse of golden sand, it is just as glorious.

If you are walking round Baggy Point there is a cafe overlooking the beach and a car park here so it makes a great place to start or finish a hike.

View of Croyde Bay

Highlight • Beach

From the southern side of Baggy Point there are stunning views across Croyde Bay.

It is easy to see why this is such a popular holiday destination with its golden beach and tall sand dunes. On the other side of the beach you can see Saunton Down on top of the headland and behind the dunes is the charming village of Croyde.
