Downderry - Beach and view to Rame Head Downderry's shingly beach is similar to that at nearby Seaton - if you want sand you have to travel a few miles further east to Whitsand Bay. Guarding the end of that bay is the peninsula of Rame Head, seen in the distance in this image. It has a little abandoned chapel on top which can be seen as a pimple in this image.
