Braunton is an English village, civil parish, ecclesiastical parish and former manor in North Devon. The village is situated 5 miles (8 km) west of Barnstaple. While not the largest village in England, it is amongst the most populous in Devon with a population at the 2011 census of 7,353 people. There are two electoral wards (East and West). Their joint population at the above census was 8,218. Within the parish is the fertile, low-lying Braunton Great Field, which adjoins the undulating Braunton Burrows, the Core Area in North Devon Biosphere Reserve, the largest psammosere (sand dune system) in England. It confronts the Atlantic Ocean at the west of the parish at the large beach of Saunton Sands, one of the South West's international-standard surfing beaches.

The North Devon Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) is one of England's most special places with breath-taking coastal scenery, beautiful beaches and coves, stunning coastal cliffs and woodlands. Steeped in heritage with an abundance of wildlife, the North Devon Coast AONB stretches from the edge of Exmoor to the Cornish Border. There is no shortage of things to see, do or explore. We hope you love North Devon as much as we do and enjoy your time here - all feedback and recommendations hugely welcome.
I have lived in North Devon for 8 years and have seen pretty much all of the beautiful beaches that this coastline has to offer, but Crow Point for me stands out from the crowd. It is a vast expanse of sand, sea, dunes and incredible views which is absolutely worth a visit with only a £2.00 fee payable at a toll for as long as you want to stay. For those who want to avoid the crowd, let their children (and dogs) roam free, this is the place to go.

We love this beach! It is one of our favourites in this area. It is great for families, a relaxed atmosphere, ample parking, amazing standard of toilets for a beach facility (very clean!!) and a great cafe / coffee bar.

Paint a Pot is a fantastic place to spend a few hours relaxing and creating your own unique piece of pottery no matter what age you are. Each project is individual and a session can last between 30 minutes up to two hours, depending on the size of the piece and the complexity of your design. If you are on holiday in Devon why not visit our studio and take a memento of your holiday home with you.
Great way to pass a few hrs with the the family very enjoyable friendly and worth every penny.. esp The surprise after your pottery’s been glazed and kilned :) but allow 2 days if you want to pick Up to Take home bk home other wise if not they will Post ( not sure of additional costs though ) ????????☝️

A cracking place to thoroughly enjoy the day with friends and family, whether just chilling on the beach, grabbing a ice cream or hitting the waves for some bodyboarding or surfing. Plus there is always the beach games - rounders, Frisbee, beach volleyball, football, cricket the list goes on and there are the sand dunes as well to climb, bodyboard down or just get lost in. then at the end of the day you can just relax on the beach and watch the sun set. Well worth a visit.

Very lovely place to visit. Rocks, dunes, sand. Lovely walk. Dogs had a wail of a time. Got to see boat skeletons when the tide was out, rock pools but personnel did not go to them as I have a bad back and worry about slipping on the green stuff. Well worth another visit. No facilities, so take a drink and picnic if planning a days outing
