Summerleaze Beach
Summerleaze Beach is located within a short walk of Bude town centre, making it a very popular family sandy beach. However, as it is so large at low tide, it never feels overcrowded.
Summerleaze Beach has a large breakwater on one side, complete with a tower protecting a small harbour and the mouth of the Bude canal with its massive lock gates. On the beach’s opposite side is a sea-water bathing pool.
Backing onto the beach are grassy downs and the River Neet.
Large car park with easy access, toilets, cafe, lifeguards in the summer and Bude town centre a short 5 minute walk.
Summerleaze Beach is a Blue Flag Beach and has been awarded a regional Seaside Award.
