Almost There
The twin villages of Cawsand and Kingsand are a pair of 17th Century fishing villages once renown for their smuggling activities. The streets are narrow and twisting with pretty pastel-coloured houses.
They sit on a calm sheltered bay which looks over Plymouth Sound and is generally considered a safe place for swimming. The beach is made of sand and shingle and also has many rock pools to explore around the edges.
The Cawsand Ferry service has been operating for more than one hundred years, connecting Plymouth to the villages.
Part of the fabric of the community, The Weston Maid, or Red Pig, as she’s affectionately known by the locals, offers a 30 minute sailing to and from the Barbican Landing Stage in Plymouth, directly onto Cawsand Beach.
A 40ft purpose built passenger vessel, she is a celebrity in her own right, built as a lifeboat for the ocean liner, Canberra.
