Vugga Cove


Vugga Cove is a narrow sandy cove with rocky sides, a sort of appendix to Crantock Beach. It is easily missed by people who, at low water, clamber up and down its rocky sides to get to and from Crantock. which is a pity because It's worth pausing here; where Crantock is all sand and dunes, Vugga is rocks and tide pools when the water is out, with a wonderful view of Crantock, East Pentire and the whole bay. After dusk today a blue purple haze blankets the sky, and Vugga feels far more isolated and lonely than its bigger neighbour ever could.
