Sand when not at high tide

Lake

Another large stretch of beach sandwiched between Shanklin and Sandown. It is very easy to walk between Lake and Sandown because they merge into each other. Lake is accessed by several steps and paths cut into the cliff face and therefore car parking is above the beach on small roads. There is no Esplanade or buildings at Lake beach due to a cliff face with various methods of Erosion protection applied, there is a cafe' here. Hotels and a footpath are located on the top of the cliff face. It is easy to walk to Sandown or Shanklin beach though.
