Croyde Bay

Reviewed By MisterPesto - Bristol, United Kingdom

A cracking place to thoroughly enjoy the day with friends and family, whether just chilling on the beach, grabbing a ice cream or hitting the waves for some bodyboarding or surfing. Plus there is always the beach games - rounders, Frisbee, beach volleyball, football, cricket the list goes on and there are the sand dunes as well to climb, bodyboard down or just get lost in. then at the end of the day you can just relax on the beach and watch the sun set. Well worth a visit.
