Saunton Sands

Saunton Sands is a breathtaking 3.5-mile stretch of golden beach, attracting families, surfers, and visitors of all abilities.

There is a beach car park with disabled spaces, with a recently tarmacked surface that leads down to the slipway.

Surfboard hire is available on the beach and dogs are permitted all year round.

It is truly a beautiful beach with all the facilities for a great day out.

Parking

Generous disabled parking spaces are available on the right hand side as you enter the car park through the barrier.

The car park surface from the disabled parking to the bottom of the slipway has recently been tarmacked, so access is considerably better now.

Wheelchairs

Saunton have their own beach wheelchairs which can be hired free of charge from the beach shop. A Banana Board is also available to borrow.

Please note these are not Access For All beach wheelchairs.

Beach access

The concrete slipway is easy to navigate in a wheelchair.  Take caution at the end of the slipway as there has been some beach matting put down which can be very uneven.   
Due to natural environmental conditions the sand moves from under this matting and there can be debris on the beach left by the tide so take care and ensure you have the support required for you to get onto and off the beach.

Toilets

There is one disabled toilet at Saunton. It is accessed via the level walkway in front of the shop. 

It is a decent size toilet, however please note that there is no toilet seat on the toilet itself making it’s use very limited.
This is not a radar key facility and it is operated by the council not the beach owner.
