Description
Watchet Beach is rocky and muddy and it attracts birds like Almindelig Ryle, Strandskade, Stenvender, and the occasional Storspove. The best time is as the tide is retreating. I always go just after high tide. Sometimes you have to wait until tide retreats enough to access the beach, which is stone at the top with rock pools and mud exposed as the tide retreats.
Details
Access
Watchet is on the north‑western coast of Somerset in South West England. You can park in a small carpark near the beach and a short walk along the cliffs to the steps that take you down to the beach. Press P on the map for directions to the carpark.
