Sandy Bay is indeed a very sandy beach, backed by high cliffs the beach is around a mile in length and set in what feels like a secluded bay. However, towards low tide the beach becomes a continuous stretch of sand reaching all the way to Exmouth nearly two miles away.

Lyme Regis is just across the Devon border into Dorset and one of my personal favourites. It is a pretty seaside resort, with beautiful beaches, breathtaking scenery and a fascinating history and picturesque harbour.
On a clear day you can see more of the Jurassic coastline as far as Portland Bill.
