Everyone’s ideal beach
Woolacombe’s beautiful beach has been awarded the Blue Flag and Premier Seaside Beach Award year-on-year for its good management, cleanliness and water quality.
With no jet skis or speed boats to worry about - they’re prohibited - the surfing and swimming are superb.
Play in the sand
The three miles of golden sands right here on your doorstep are just right for building sandcastles or hunting around in rock pools.
Paddle in the sea or relax on a deckchair - or even in a beach hut - enjoy a BBQ or take a walk along the North Devon Coastal Path. It’s all here!
…and in the surf
With our own surf school, wetsuit and board hire, you’ll find everything on your Park to kit you out ready to hit the waves.
And if the conditions aren’t quite right, then head back to the Park’s beach club and ride the perfect wave with our NEW surfing simulator.
Blue Flag beach
The Environment Agency describes Woolacombe as “a broad golden sandy beach backed by sand dunes… a safe bathing beach with good surfing conditions, an ideal family beach in every way”.
There is also the reassurance of high quality lifeguard cover during the Summer season.
