Cawsand and Kingsand are two small villages withinย Cawsand Bay.
They have sand and shingle beaches sheltered by Rame Head Peninsula, offering views over Plymouth Sound. There are also rock pools to explore and slipways for easy access to the sea.
Cawsand Beach has seasonal dog restrictions, prohibiting dogs from 1st July to 31st August between 10 am โ 6 pm.
The villages have a history with much involvement in smuggling and fishing. Remains of old pilchard cellars from the late 16th century can be seen on the shoreline beyond Kingsand. These ‘Pilchard Palaces’ were used to store and process this most prized fish.
Facilities at the beach include slipways, toilets and shops.
