Blue Anchor, a quiet coastal haven, offers a sense of enduring calm. It lies 5.2 km west of Watchet (from Watchet: bearing 264°T, OS grid ST 019 429), and is situated east-north-east of Carhampton village. The salty tang of the Bristol Channel often hangs in the air here, a constant reminder of the sea's proximity, and the beach itself, a sweep of sand and shingle, invites contemplation. Though small, Blue Anchor possesses a distinct character, shaped by the ebb and flow of tides and the enduring spirit of its inhabitants. The gentle curve of the bay, where the land meets the water, feels like a whispered promise of peaceful days.
