Crantock
Edit SpotAbout
Access through Crantock Village. Roads very narrow down to the car park - 1 car wide in places, so not easiest of access. Car Park small.
North: River Gannel's rivermouth so sandbanks are better. long hollow rights.
South: good S-SW winds protection and good with huge swells.
