The beach at Freshwater Bay is a combination of pebbles and sand and has wonderful rockpools with crabs and small fish which has kept generations of small children amused for hours and is very sheltered from the prevailing wind. Compton Bay is the Island's surf beach and is about 5 minutes by car. Big surf is rare in the summer months but there is lots of sand at low tide on this long unspoilt beach. Great for picnics and BBQs. More sheltered and busier is another sandy beach, Colwell Bay, which is about 10 minutes by car. Here there is a promenade, cafes, beach huts and lots of families and children.
