Sandy Bay

Sheltered swim and paddle bay under the red cliffs, a short hop east of Orcombe Point.

Sandy Bay is the next bay east of Orcombe Point, tucked under the red Jurassic Coast cliffs. It is a favourite for a swim or a gentle paddle on a calm day, and the run or cycle out along the coast path from the seafront makes it a proper morning mission.

It is the location for episode one of Edge Exe-plores, our cycle, swim and run. Watch the episode for the route.
