Leas Foot Sand Beach

South Devon.

Leas Foot Sand is a nice sandy beach with fine views, below the golf club at Thurlestone. Parking is a short walk from the beach, facilities such as toilets are at Thurlstone Sand, a ten minute walk on the coast path.

Signs warn of strong under currents, large breaking waves and deeply shelving beach. Also do not use inflatables when windy. See Beach Safety Guide.

There is a sandy path from the golf club car park taking about 5 minutes to walk to the beach. Final access to the beach is via a short gentle slope.

Dogs allowed all year.

Thurlestone village is approximately 20 miles from Plymouth. Take the A379 from Plymouth into south Devon. About a mile after Aveton Gifford, at the Bantham Cross roundabout go straight across onto the B3197 (signposted to Salcombe). Alternatively approaching from the Totnes direction, take the A381 and A379 until you reach the Bantham Cross roundabout (shortly after Churchstow) and turn onto the B3197. After a short distance on the B3197, turn right (signposted to Thurlestone). Follow this road for several miles, then turn right at a junction and follow this road through Thurlestone village. At the golf club, there is a car park for the public. Alternatively after the golf course, turn right for the car park at the north of Thurlestone Sand beach. Then walk the coast path west.
