Lovely little beach -part shingle with plenty of rock pools and then vast area of golden sand. Not crowded, no cafe facilities so best take a flask and some sandwiches-well worth it !

Great beach with lots of ample car parking space and very little car park charges , great for coastal walks and a hot spot for dog walkers in the summer

I have been here a few times now. This beach is beautiful! It’s a rocky and pebble beach but when the tide goes out it’s sandy. It has plenty of rock pools for children to explore and also has lots of grassy places to go walking, where you can see the bay from a hight which is beautiful. The parking is 5 pound a car which isn’t to bad if you are there all day and it also has toilets and a little shop that sells ice creams. I would definitely recommend this beach I really enjoyed myself but make sure you bring sun cream I even caught the sun on cloudy days here.

Rock pools, a lively sea and when the tide is out superb views back towards a spectacular coastline and always a chance of finding fossils. There is sand once the tide has receded and its a good location for artists to record. Along the cliff top is a wonderful walk with excellent views out to sea.

We spent most of the day at Jackson Bay beach, which is a lovely spot to enjoy a picnic away from the hustle and bustle of Barry Island. The beach is flat with some rocks and there are great views across the channel. The cove is ideal for families who want an inexpensive day out or for those who want to enjoy the great outdoors. The walk down to the beach is quite steep, but worth it. Parking is available near to the access road to the beach.
