A GUIDE TO BEACHES
Attention Beach Lovers! FarmCoast offers a variety of coastal locations from the highly populated beaches to the remote and natural settings. To explore these beaches you will also find yourself navigating through an ecological storybook reflecting on the complicated interface of glacial movements and tidal action that left behind a pattern of scrub forests, salt marshes, rocky shores, dunes, and their unique flora and fauna. Enjoy the sun, enjoy the natural environment, and enjoy your visit to FarmCoast!TIVERTON
