It's a beautiful spot - but I have no idea where the name 'Herah's Beach' comes from. According to all the locals I've spoken to (I live within a 10 minute walk) this beach doesn't have an official name, it is known by several unofficially. None of them is the name here!

Romantic setting. Lovely stroll along the beach picking up shells. Was recommended by our family.

Secluded beach between Austinmer and Thirroul beaches, nice place to relax without anyone bothering you, great spot for meditation 👍
