Tidal Pool Swim at Woody Bay – OS Wallpaper Download September 2025
Located on the rugged North Devon coast between Combe Martin and Lynton, Woody Bay is a tranquil bay perfect for cove-hopping. Known for its dramatic scenery and steep wooded cliffs, it has a beautiful rocky, shingle beach with a tidal pool ideal for a wild swimming. It’s a also waypoint on the South West Coast Path and part of a Site of Special Scientific Interest due to its rich biodiversity.
This month’s OS Wallpaper image is from Outdoor Swimmer Magazine’s Rowan Clarke and her recent article for wild swimming and cove-hopping along the Devon coast.
