A mile-long beach with a mix of sand and shingle, clear water, and a gently sloping shore. It's a great place for swimming, water sports, and walking. The beach is surrounded by cliffs and green hillsides, and is a popular spot for photographers. A flat walking area that runs alongside the beach, with a cafe at one end and the town at the other.

I have no idea why they call it the tombstone. Maybe as it looks like one? I don't know. Anybody know?

Quite the section this. Has a little bit of everything.

Beer Quarry Caves is a man-made limestone underground complex located about a mile west of the village of Beer, Devon, and the main source in England for beer stone. The tunnels resulted from 2,000 years of quarrying beer stone, which was particularly favoured for cathedral and church features such as door and window surrounds because of its colour and workability for carving. Stone from the quarry was used in the construction of several of southern England's ancient cathedrals and a number of other important buildings as well as for many town and village churches, and for some buildings in the United States.

Seaton's coastal beach is a mile long and overlooks Lyme Bay on the Jurassic Coast. The beach is ideal for swimming, paddling and fishing. The town itself, Devon's easternmost seaside resort, has plenty of cafes, pubs, shops and restaurants to refuel and recharge your batteries.

Hidden away beneath the towering chalk cliffs of Branscombe and Beer Head runs a section of the South West Coast Path that wends and writhes through coastal woodlands. Aside from the crash of the waves smashing into the beach on your right, this stretch of the route is always quiet, and it has an otherworldly feel to it. Cosultant editor Pat Kinsella says: "Whenever I run along this path my imagination is transported back to a time when local smugglers used it to ferry contraband to secret tunnels in the cliffs, which led to the nearby catacombs of Beer Caves. Among the characters active here in the 18th and 19th centuries was the infamous Jack Rattenbury, who was known as the Rob Roy of the West and wrote a book about his illegal exploits in 1837."
