Ok it doesn't have sand but tiny pebbles but what a beautiful and peaceful place. Well worth the 10-15 minute journey from Dartmouth if you wish to lay on the beach and watch the waves roll in...

My partner spent many holidays during his childhood coming to Devon and visiting Blackpool sands and was desperate to show me the area. On arrival there was a small car park with a rude parking attendant stood at the entrance. We only wanted to have a quick walk onto the beach...no longer than an hour and the parking attendant wanted... More

Food in cafe was far better than you'd expect from a beachside cafe. Lovely beach, great views, highly recommend.
