hows it goin mate, the beach i fished is to the left of the carpark at the cliffs (up past the holiday homes).. if you head left youll see an old derelict house with a walkway down to a very small shingle beach, with rocks aswell, kelp beds striaght out in front.. thers cliffs to the right and rocks to the left.. looks like a good spot but i havint had much luck ther, iv never seen anyone else fishing down ther either
