Situated just beyond Dartmouth Castle, the secluded coves take in a stunning outlook across the mouth of the River Dart. Best of all, they are backed by steep cliffs and trees that are jam packed with wildlife. Popular with those keen on fishing, in the summer months mackerel is found in abundance and perfect for cooking on a beach barbecue!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"2\">Leonards Cove<\/h2>\n<p>Nestled in an area of outstanding natural beauty, Leonards Cove overlooks the breadth of Start Bay and is accessed directly from the quintessential village of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/stoke-fleming-village-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Stoke Fleming<\/a>.

A proud recipient of the Blue Flag Award, its excellent facilities and safe environment make it a popular family beach. Privately owned, the beach is well managed and enjoys a well-stocked shop, toilet facilities, cafe, kayak\/paddleboard hire, plentiful parking, and in the colder months, a beach sauna! The beach is backed by evergreens and towering scented pines, and on a sizzling summer&#8217;s day you could mistake it for the med!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"4\">Slapton Sands<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-32848\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/04\/Fishing.jpg\" alt=\"Fishing\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/slapton-sands-south-devon-beach-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Slapton Sands<\/a> is an expansive three mile shingle beach occupying the central stretch of Start Bay. Taking in views that reach as far as Start Point and Dartmouth, Slapton Sands accommodates three separate beaches. To the South is Torcross, with the other two \u2018zones\u2019 of the beach situated to the centre and North (Strete Gate Beach).<\/p>\n<p>Another popular fishing spot, the beach is scattered with anglers throughout the entirety of the year.

From kayakers and paddleboarders to those simply enjoying a salty swim, it\u2019s a hive of activity. A great time to get out on the water is at sunrise or sunset when the wildlife is most active \u2013 you will often come up close to friendly seals and if you\u2019re really lucky, you might see a pod of dolphins enjoying a shoal of mackerel.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"6\">Strete Gate Beach<\/h2>\n<p>Occupying the northern end of Slapton Sands, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/strete-south-devon-village-guide#Strete%20Gate%20Beach\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Strete Gate Beach<\/a> is a wide shingle beach enjoying ample parking, toilet facilities and a popular coffee cart serving hot beverages and cake. The far northern end of the beach is popular with naturists, particularly in the summer months.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"7\">Landcombe Cove<\/h2>\n<p>This isolated cove nestled between Slapton Sands and Blackpool Sands is a magical beach that is home to towering caves and a wonderful waterfall. Well hidden, the walk down is steep and strenuous and as such you will often find people reaching this cove by boat.

Despite its size, the calm, clean and crystal clear waters are expansive. This makes it a popular spot for swimmers, sea kayakers and snorkelers that are keen to explore the dramatic underwater ruins of the lost village.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"10\"><strong>Mattiscombe Sands<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h2><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-35724 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/09\/Mattiscombe-Beach-640x427-1.jpg\" alt=\"View out to sea from the cliffs above Mattiscombe Sands beach\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Another hidden gem, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/mattiscombe-beach\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mattiscombe Sands<\/a> is one of the wildest and most remote beaches in the South Hams. Neighbouring Start Point, Mattiscombe is a sandy beach with rocky outcrops and is backed by rolling countryside and low-rise cliffs rich in flora and fauna.

At low tide, the exposed rock pools are rich in marine life and as you would expect, they are very popular with families. Lannacombe is an ideal beach if you want to escape the crowds, but be warned, the carpark is small and only accommodates fifteen cars, so be sure to get to the beach early to avoid disappointment!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"12\">Man Sands<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-35727\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/09\/man-sands-beach-640x427-1.jpg\" alt=\"View across Man Sands beach\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/man-sands-beach-bible\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Man Sands<\/a> is another one of South Devon&#8217;s lesser known beaches, located between Kingswear and Brixham. Large in its size, on a low tide the beach stretches for nearly 500m, so there is plenty of space to play! Mostly sand, the beach is peppered with a few rock formations and backed by natural alcoves which provide seclusion for those who want it.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Holiday Cottages near the best Dartmouth beaches<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_35730\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/cottage\/Devon-Stoke-Fleming\/The-Gulls-1059768.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35730\" class=\"size-full wp-image-35730\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/09\/The-Gulls.jpg\" alt=\"View of The Gulls, Stoke Fleming, across the outdoor swimming pool\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-35730\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/cottage\/Devon-Stoke-Fleming\/The-Gulls-1059768.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Gulls, Stoke Fleming<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/dartmouth.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dartmouth holiday cottages<\/a> are perfect for those looking for a coastal retreat that provides easy access to both the town and the surrounding area.
