One of the many secluded and sandy beaches located in the Solway Firth in southern Scotland, however this beach has the advantage of a steep slope, meaning at high tide the water is deep enough to swim right at the shore.

It's a great beach which emerges suddenly from the woods after a rewarding walk in, but keep going because White Port beach is even better
