Search the Site | Sark BeachesSark has several fine beaches to choose and although they can be quite a treck down steps of cliff paths, they are well worth the trip. Dixcart BayOn the south coast is the beautiful Dixcart Bay. It is more accessible than most of the bays but does require a cliff path walk down with steps, the journey is worthwhile. Derrible BaySituated slightly to the east of Dixcart, is Derrible Bay, accessed via Hog's Back, a gorse peninsular. At Creux Derrible is an impressive blowhole cave. Les Fontaines BayOn the rugged north east cost of the island is Les Fontaines Bay. There are two natural arches which the Sark artist William Topliss called the Fairy Grotto. At the far end is Creux Belet and Red Cave. From here the path up to Le Fort has a fantastic panoramic view. Le Creux HarbourThe original small harbour was used by ships from Guernsey until Maselin harbour opened in 1949. The old harbour boasts wonderfully clear waters for swimming in. Venus' PoolOff Little Sark at its southermost tip, is Venus' Pool. Accessed via a maze of paths, this low tide pool about 20 feet deep, offers some splendid swimming and diving conditions.
