Walk - Sharkham and Man Sands
5.9 miles (9.4 km)
Scabbacombe Car Park - TQ6 0EF Scabbacombe Car Park
Challenging - Paths, tracks and quiet country lanes, with some steep ascent and descent.
A strenuous walk with some steep ascent and descent, this is nonetheless not to be missed, with a wealth of wildflowers, a tiny and remote sandy cove, and a fast-changing wetland nature reserve. There are shortcuts halfway round if you find it too energetic, but take advantage of all the spectacular views along the coast in both directions to catch your breath!
