    Tips

    Hiking

    This is a brilliant place for seal watching. Keep a look out for their heads bobbing in the sea or lying up on the rocks.

    If seals aren't enough, there are some fantastic views south towards Baggy Point across Woolacombe Bay.

    It is called Morte Point as it is such a dangerous area for shipping. So many ships have been wrecked here that its name means 'Death Point'.
