About Sharkham Point

Sharkham Point occupies a rugged coastal headland near Brixham, offering steep, atmospheric limestone sea cliff climbing. The rock character consists of crystalline Devonian limestone with positive crimps, steep pockets, and clean vertical crack systems. Facing east into the English Channel, the crag gets morning sun and dries rapidly in ocean winds when clear of sea spray. The route distribution offers adventurous traditional lines from VS up to E-grades, highlighted by Sharkham Wall. The approach takes fifteen minutes along coastal trails from the Sharkham Point parking area followed by an abseil descent. Tidal movement covers low-level belay ledges, making tide table tracking essential.

Region: Devon — Brixham
