Gooseberry Cove is a beautiful, quiet coastal spot where the rocky shoreline meets the open Atlantic, with expansive views of the rugged coastline and breaking waves. The cove is mainly undeveloped and is a great place to explore along the rocks, where you’ll find several informal paths rather than formal trails. The setting feels remote and timeless, with plenty of room to explore, making this a perfect spot for beachcombing or enjoying a lovely picnic while taking in the scenery.
