Daymer Bay is a sandy beach on the Camel Estuary with rock pools to the north of the bay. At low tide, the sand stretches south to Rock to form a large expanse of sand backed by sand dunes and a golf course.
Beach is good for swimming in shallow water. This wide sandy beach is very sheltered and at high tide, it is possible to walk out into the sea for quite a long way before it comes up to your waist.
Large car park, toilets and shop.
Dog Friendly Beach?
Daymer Bay Beach is dog friendly and allows dogs all year.
Water samples are taken at regular intervals during the bathing season and at the end of the season the water quality is classified as: - Excellent: the highest classification meaning the water is cleanest - Good: generally good water quality - Sufficient: meets minimum standards - Poor: You are advised not to swim. The beach will stay open and an action plan should be in place to improve the water quality.
