Clovelly Beach is a small pebble beach situated in a narrow bay, protected by an ancient stone breakwater and located next to the harbour and lifeboat station. The beach is surrounded by the historic village of Clovelly, which is a major tourist attraction due to its charming 14th-century architecture and car-free streets.
The village of Clovelly is a historic and picturesque destination that has retained much of its original charm and character. The village is car-free, with visitors required to park at the top of the village and walk down steep, cobbled streets to access the beach and harbour. A Land Rover shuttle service is available for those who prefer not to walk, taking guests from the car park to the Red Lion pub next to the harbour.
The village of Clovelly offers a range of amenities, including public toilets, shops, pubs, and restaurants. The beach is popular with divers and snorkellers due to its diverse marine wildlife, and the surrounding area is also home to the South West Coast Path, which offers stunning views of the coastline. Visitors can enjoy a range of activities, including swimming, sunbathing, and walking.
Clovelly is a dog-friendly destination, with many accommodation options available, including the Red Lion Inn on the harbour front and the historic New Inn built in the 17th century. Donkeys are used to carry luggage down the cobbled streets, adding to the village's charm and character.
Clovelly Beach is on the Hartland (Devon) Heritage Coast.
