Our verdict
Exmoor's strangest and most photogenic shoreline — half beach, half ghost forest since the sea broke the ridge in 1996. Walk from Bossington village to Hurlstone Point at golden hour and you'll fill a camera roll. Shingle is heavy going; wear boots not flip-flops.
The great pebble ridge of Porlock Bay where Horner Water breaks through to the sea, backed by the eerie drowned salt marsh with its dead-tree skeletons and fronted by miles of grey shingle under Hurlstone Point.
National Trust shingle beach and salt marsh at the mouth of Porlock Bay. The marsh floods on big tides and the shingle is steep — check tides, watch children by the water.
