Ilfracombe Wildersmouth Beach
Ilfracombe Wildersmouth Beach is a sand, stone and rock beach typical of this part of the North Devon coast. It sits between Ilfracombe Capstone Hill to the east and Ilfracombe The Landmark Theatre and Ilfracombe Museum to the west.
The beach takes its name from the East Wilder Brook and West Wilder Brook that flow into the Bristol Channel at Wildersmouth Beach. These brooks are marked on Ordnance Survey mapping.
We’d recommend wandering to the top of Ilfracombe Capstone Hill for super views down to the beach and across town. If you enjoy walking, yomp to the top of the big hill to the east of Ilfracombe Harbour. Hillsborough provides awesome views of the area.
