Wildersmouth Beach

Wildersmouth is a sheltered, shingle beach hidden away from the hustle and bustle of central Ilfracombe, yet still within reach of its lively atmosphere.

Bring your dogs along to this beach overlooking East Ilfracombe, where they can explore the rocks or enjoy a stroll along the promenade.
