A long but gently descending set of steps leads down into a small cove,
and only by advancing to the line of the cliffs does the visitor manage
to see the sand that stretches away westwards. The beach is surrounded by
warm-coloured limestone cliffs, highly fissured and creviced and giving rise
to a remarkable range of curiously shaped rock features: arches, caves, isolated
rock formations and potholes (naturally formed shafts in the rocks that,
in this case, can only be seen from the cliff top).
