🌊 Event Overview

Join us for an informal evening on the beautiful rocky cove at Lee Abbey Bay Beach. We'll gather from 7pm to watch the sunset, share conversation, and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the North Devon coast.

This is a laid-back social event β€” no formal plan, just time to unwind in nature and connect with likeminded people. If allowed and safe to do so, we’ll light a small beach fire.

βœ… What to Bring

  • Warm layers (it can get cool after sunset)

  • Blanket or camp chair

  • Snacks or a flask (feel free to bring enough to share)

  • Torch or headlamp for the walk back

  • A cup or tin if we make a brew

πŸ“ Important Notes

  • This event takes place on Lee Abbey Bay Beach, just west of the Valley of the Rocks

  • Please do not go to Lee Bay near Ilfracombe β€” it’s a different location!
