The Beaches of Devon - Broad Sands
THE BEACHES OF DEVON. Use the controls to pan or zoom, and click on a yellow marker to view the beach details.
OS Explorer Map OL20 South Devon
This map is part of the Ordnance Survey's Explorer series designed to replace the old Pathfinder map series. At 1:25,000 scale this detailed map shows a host of attractions including gardens which are open to the public, nature reserves and country parks as well as all official footpaths, bridleways, roads and lanes. Other facilities covered include: camping and caravan sites, picnic areas and viewpoints, selected places of interest, rights of way information for England and Wales, National Trail and Recreational Path routes, and selected tourist information. The series is aimed mainly at the experienced map user but can be used by tourists and locals alike.
Northeast facing, this beach is aptly named. A broad stretch of red Devon sand, the beach lies at the southern end of Torbay and is almost as popular as its northerly neighbour, Goodrington Sands.
Access to the beach is easy and the sand has excellent castle building qualities. Good Facilities. Chalets and deckchairs are for hire as well as pedaloes and boats.
