Cliff and Beach Safety

Landslips and rock falls

These are common along this stretch of the North Devon coast, which is constantly eroding and can occur at ANY time. However, exceptional rainfall may contribute to the frequency of falls and possible landslides.

It is important that visitors pay attention to any warning signs and stay well away from the base of cliffs and landslides.

Cliff Edge

Similarly, avoid walking close to the cliff edge, particularly overhangs which may not support your weight.

It is advisable, if you are alone, that you let someone know where you are going and at what time you expect to be back.
