Free parking at the gateway to Marsden Grotto
Grotto Car Park is a 75-space gravel lot on an unnamed spur road off Marsden Road, serving Marsdens coastal nature reserve and the historic Grotto. Parking is free of charge year-round; minimal lighting preserves the natural setting. The site features directional signage to cliff-top trails, no enforcement, and informal turning areas for coaches. It offers immediate access to sea-cave viewing platforms and shoreline walks.
