Incredibly picturesque and popular with both locals and thousands of visitors every year, Charlestown beach is a great place to relax and enjoy some fresh sea air.

Separated by the historic harbour, the mixed sand and pebble beach is accessed by steps on the eastern side and slipway on the western.
