Forest Cove Beach

Forest Cove Beach is a sheltered cove on the Devon coast with sandy beach, calm clear water, and gentle conditions perfect for beginner and family swimmers. The small cove is well-protected from Atlantic swells by surrounding headlands. Bring water shoes as there are rocks at the water's edge, and check tide times as the beach becomes quite narrow at high tide.
