Derrible Bay
A bay north of Hog's Back where sand appears only at low tide. At low water you can walk into sea caves and look down into the "Creux Derrible" below the cliff.
Derrible Bay lies north of Dixcart Bay, separated from it by Hog's Back headland. A wide sandy beach is exposed only at low tide, and at its far end are sea caves you can walk into. Nearby, the Creux Derrible is a huge collapsed sea cave that can be seen from above on the cliff top. From the clifftop, steep steps lead down to the bay in about 15 minutes. Check the tide times carefully to avoid being cut off by the rising tide.
