Overview

Down Breakwater Rd, follow the SW coast path along Oreston Quay then in to pass Hooe Lake.  Leave the SWCP to pass Radford Lake, straight across Radford Dip.  Wriggle and zig-zag up past housing and a corner of Radford Woods.  Field paths to Staddiscombe, sharp right along tarmac then descend Bovisand Lane for a mile to Bovisand Bay.  Rejoin the SWCP going up steps and along the top of the cliff with fantastic views across the Sound.  At Jennycliff, cut the corner across and down to Hooe.  The SWCP now takes you back to pass ‘Radford Castle’.  Back to Morrisons along the old railway track.

Meet at the corner of Morrisons CP nearest the filling station.  In the event of awful weather a frequent bus can get us back from Hooe.
