View of St Mary's Bay

Highlight • Viewpoint

St Mary's Bay is the sandy beach between Berry Head to the north and Sharkham Point to the south. There are great views of it and out to sea from the coast path along the southern edge of Berry Head.

Tip by

2.18 km

Berry Head was used as an extensive Iron Age hill fort but a lot of the evidence of this was destroyed in the construction of a Napoleonic naval fort between 1794 and 1804. Much of this is still visible plus the addition of look out points from the world wars.
The views from here over Tor Bay and across the channel are massive.
