Description
Maintained tidal pool approx 150m wide by 150m long offering free year round swimming. Several sets of steps for easy access off the walls, or direct from the beach although care needed to choose sandy area as some chalk rocks can be uneven. Swimming around low tide is recommended up to 2.5 - 3hrs either side of high tide so pool walls are exposed.
Getting There
Parking available on the promenade above the pool, no other facilities. There are a couple of cafes nearby.
Accessibility
Sandy beach with best access via several sets of steps off the pool walls. Can get very busy in the summer as popular with families and paddleboarders.

Absolutley loved it. Tide was on its way in but thoroughly enjoyed it! End of August and the water had quite a chill and it was windy as anything but still wonderful.
