Grid locator square
A small, sheltered shingle beach backed by steep wooded cliffs and a historic pier. The highest cliff-top promenade in England at Babbacombe Downs provides an exceptional take-off angle for VHF/UHF or HF operations. Measured horizontally from the edge of the promenade railing out to the mean high water mark, the distance to the water varies between 60 and 80 metres.
Accessible publicly all year via a steep, windy road descending from Babbacombe Downs, or through designated concrete steps and a slipway on the promenade. Vehicles can drive down to the small paid car park right next to the beach, though, twisting, and highly congested during holiday seasons.
