Bigbury-on-Sea Beach has a wide and varied selection of water sports available to visitors who prefer their holidays to feature a little adrenaline rush. If you want to try something different from the usual bodyboarding or surfing then windsurfing and kite-surfing are popular here, with hire facilities located right on the beach.

Bigbury-on-Sea is located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is the perfect destination for a beach holiday. Dusted with sand and lapped by shallow waters, the beach offers safe fun for groups and children, with the well-known Discovery Surf School offering surfing and stand up paddleboarding lessons for all ages and abilities. In addition, Bigbury-on-Sea beach is lined with rock pools, so there’s plenty of entertainment for budding marine biologists. Windsurfing and kite-surfing are popular here, with hire facilities located right on the beach. Offering peace of mind, there are lifeguards present at Bigbury-on-Sea beach during the summer months (May to September) and the beach also has a first-aid room. You can even take your dog onto the beach, although they are restricted to certain areas during the summer. Bigbury’s most famous landmark is Burgh Island, which overlooks the beach itself. At low tide the island is accessible on foot, when the waters reveal a causeway that links it to the beach. However, when the tide is in you can still reach the island by hitching a ride on the unique ‘sea tractor’. Burgh Island boasts an Art Deco hotel, which was the setting for a famous novel by Agatha Christie.

The city of Plymouth and Dartmoor National Park are also both within easy driving distance.

  • Susan

    With six people staying it would be helpful to have different coloured towels provided for each bedroom.

  • Sara

    Three generations of our family enjoyed our stay, with plenty of activities for the young and fit and the oldies enjoyed the peace and stunning sea views. Could see Eddystone lighthouse on the horizon on a clear day. All appliances worked well, but the toaster was a bit challenging! Hoping to stay at Seaspray again.

  • Peter

    The location is perfect as it's only a short walk to the beach and the views are great. The accommodation and garden are very spacious. On wet days the children loved the super toys and books. Can't wait for Visit No 5!
