Daymer Bay in North Cornwall

DAYMER BEACH

Daymer beach is an ideal location for families with youngsters to spend the day. It also offers some stunning walks for those of you who don’t care for the water. This wide sandy beach is very sheltered and at high tide you can walk out in to the sea for quite a way before it comes up to your waist. There is ample parking, a shop and public toilets at this location.

BROADAGOGUE COVE

To the right of Daymer Bay you will find an abundance of rock pools and the small beach known as Broadagogue Cove renowned for its abundance of Cowrie shells. Broadagogue cove merges with Greenaway Cove. The headland walk to Polzeath is called Greenaways, which is accessible from both Daymer car park and Tristram car park in Polzeath. Trestram Covelet is a small beach usable only at lower tides on the Polzeath side of the Greenaway.

Brea Hill ( Braey Hill)

To the left of Daymer Bay is Braey Hill, which is well worth climbing for the superb views that it affords of Hawkers cove, the Doom Bar and Stepper Point (sleeping Dragon).

ST ENEDOC CHURCH

At the foot of Braey Hill and behind the dunes of Daymer lies St Enodoc Church (The last resting place of Sir John Betjemen “poet laureate”). Further to the left, across the St Enodoc golf course or via the beach, when the tide is low…you will find Rock.

DAYMER BAY

Daymer Bay & Cassock Daymer Bay was originally called Daymark Bay because of said daymark being located here in the camel estuary. N.B. A daymark is a navigational aid for sailors and pilots that is distinctively marked in order to maximize its visibility in daylight.

DAYMER BAY

Daymer bay is one of the jewels in North Cornwall’s Crown. Between Rock and Polzeath you will find Trebetherick, and it is here that the fabulous expanse of sand that is Daymer bay, can be found. Daymer bay and Cassock are in the mouth of the Camel estuary and unlike Polzeath have very little in the way of surf… but it is an excellent spot for swimming, windsurfing, boating or canoeing.
