Wonwell Beach, Sandy beach at Erme Estuary, South Hams, England
The golden sand shore stretches along the Erme Estuary, revealing extensive flat areas during low tide and disappearing completely at high tide.
The beach has maintained its natural state through centuries, serving as a crossing point between coastal settlements and supporting local maritime activities.
Local communities gather at this beach throughout the year for outdoor activities, swimming, and traditional coastal pursuits like sandcastle building.
The beach offers roadside parking spaces near Kingston, with a narrow access road leading to a small turning circle at the end.
Visitors can wade across the estuary at low tide to reach Mothecombe Beach, creating a natural connection between these two coastal locations.
