Lovely spot which can be reached by boat or from the coastal track, though it is not on the track itself. At the moment the river leaves the estuary behind the beach through a gap in the top of the sandbank but only at high tide. This can be traversed by small boat, slowly and carefully to access the river itself as far as the swing ridge that carries the track across the river.
