Coastal reserve with rugged cliffs, sweeping sea vistas and pockets of heath and wildflowers — excellent for dramatic coastal landscapes, seabird activity and long exposures of waves. Best at sunrise/sunset for warm light and clouds; spring–summer brings wildflowers and nesting birds, winter offers stormy skies. Paths are mostly unpaved and can be steep; bring sturdy shoes. No formal entry fee but parking near Ilfracombe is limited—arrive early on weekends.
