Compton Bay
This bay is favoured by both Island residents and holidaymakers, famed for its 'mile long sweep of sand' and clear water. This beach is perfect for swimming and relaxing in a picteresque setting. Although an ice-cream/hot snacks van and public toliets are the only facilities here the quality of the sand and water makes this a very popular beach in the summer months. Surfers find the conditions ideal and can be seen riding the waves all year round.
This beach has its own car park and visitors have to take steps down to the beach. Others prefer to park on the road and walk down a gentle slope to the sand. No dogs are allowed on this beach.
