Bar Point Beach

Bar Point Beach graces the northeastern tip of Samson Island, the largest uninhabited island in the Isles of Scilly. The beach faces toward Puffin Island and offers a pristine slice of Scillonian wilderness. Its protected position creates a tranquil spot where soft sand meets crystal-clear waters, all set against a backdrop of coastal heathland and the ruins of historic stone cottages that tell tales of the island's past inhabitants.

The beach exemplifies the untamed beauty that makes Samson Island so special among the Scillies – a place where nature has reclaimed what was once a small but thriving community. Access is only possible by private boat or scheduled boat service from the inhabited islands, adding to its sense of isolation and preserved character.
