The north-eastern end of the long sweep of sand across St Ives Bay, towards Godrevy lighthouse. It faces north-west, takes Atlantic swell readily and is offshore in a southerly or south-easterly; a beach break whose peaks move with the sandbanks. In south-westerly and westerly winds the bay is a kite and windsurf spot too. The big tides change it through the day.
