Beach Info

Little Bucklands Beach is a good spot to have a picnic on the beach, or in the car if it's a bit windy. Take care as the beach slopes away steeply at high tide and there may be strong currents. Alternatively, enjoy the boardwalk around to Half Moon Bay Marina. Keep within arm's reach of young children. If you're launching your boat or going for a paddle, check the conditions and take the right gear. Wear your lifejacket if you're launching your tender to reach your yacht.
