Located at the foot of Quantock Hills on the Jurassic Coast, a beautiful hidden gem of St. Audely Bay. This secluded beach consists of a mixture of pebbles, sand, shingles and rocks, with two waterfalls cascade down the cliff and towards the beach.
This gorgeous beach is said to have some of the most interesting geology in Somerset, and like many beaches along this coast, it is often visited by fossil hunters. Fossils are often found in beach foreshores and cliff waterfalls. But the most unique part of this beach is certainly two waterfalls.
Some liberal visitors claim that these are technically not waterfalls, but are usually called “St. Audely Falls” because they do not erupt large amounts of water.
These waterfalls are particularly amazingly visible, especially after a period of heavy rain. However, waterfalls are only accessible at low tide, so check the tide timing before visiting.
Visitors can certainly take a dip in the ocean if necessary, but it should be noted that this stretch of Bristol channel is particularly vague, with the sand closest to the ocean getting quite muddy.
Visitors to St. Audely left a rave review on the Beach Guide website. “Even though it has been like this in the last 15 years, it was my first time visiting St. Audrey Bay, and I was a bit skeptical.
“Absolutely beautiful, you might have sat there for hours. But if you have a stroller/wheelchair due to the procedure, it can be a little hard to be careful about. It's definitely worth a visit.”
While the third person wrote, “A perfect place to escape from everyday life. A very nice place, definitely worth a visit.”
