Thurlestone Marsh and Thurlestone Sands House Although the maps shows marshland and drains in the valley floor here, none of them show an actual pool. The wetland is popular with bird-spotters. A view from Thurlestone Footpath 16 at the edge of the golf course.
Thurlestone. South facing photo taken from Warren Bay. There's a band of divers kitting up on the beach ready to swim out and dive the popular wreck of the Louis Sheid. Over the water lies the headland of Bolt Tail.
