Kingsand Beach can be found in the small fishing village of Kingsand in Cornwall, UK. It is a combination of sand and shingle and is situated next to the seafront clocktower, which is a well-known landmark of the village. The beach offers visitors views of Plymouth Sound and passing ships.
It is protected by Picklecombe Point and Penlee Point, making it a sheltered area. During low tide, there are many rock pools to explore, making it a popular location for families. The beach is also surrounded by pubs and shops.
Visitors can enjoy walking trails on Rame Head, and a pay and display car park for 100 cars is located just 100 yards from the beach in Cawsand.
In 2014, the clocktower was almost destroyed by winter storms, but it has since been restored to its original condition.
