Fowey Beaches

Im going on an adventure to Fowey, Cornwall during Regatta week (begins 13th aug) with my rib and a mate and his hard boat.
Do any of you local chaps know of some nice sheltered, sandy beaches nearby for anchoring and BBQ's?

Or any other nearby "must see" places to go by boat?

Failing that if your about in Fowey during regatta week give us a wave!

just got back from fowey. For food visit the ship inn @ lerryn, avoid low tide though or you will be stranded . Little lantic's the best beach its sandy the others are a sand/stone mix. If your stopping on the east side of estuary (mixtow) take fuel containers, the garage is either over the other side of estuary + 2miles or an 8 mile journey. Slipways are all good. all in all a great place to visit quite simliar to salcombe without all the toffs
