Challaborough
beach is a sheltered horse shoe shaped cove made up of excellent fine
sand.
At low tide, there are plenty of interesting rock pools to explore
or alternatively you could take to the coastal path and stroll along
the commanding cliffs of the South Devon coast.
The cove lends itself well to watersports and the nearby Holiday Park
ensures that guests are never short of entertainment.
The
beach is especially popular with surfers and hosts top class surf
competitions.
Safety when bathing is also reassured by the regular presence of lifeguards.
There is a cafe, toilets, and first aid facilities. There is also
a car park.
The beach didn't have the Blue Flag in 2004 - so it's a welcome addition
to Devon's Blue Flag beaches in 2005.
How to get there: From the A379 between Modbury and Aveton
Gifford, turn onto the B3392 towards Bigbury. At St Annes chapel turn
right - it is signposted Ringmore and Challaborough.
