Public access can be had from the steep lane leading from the Yorkshire Water pumping station, just off the A165 Filey Road.[1] The Cleveland Way skirts the clifftop for the length of the bay.
The bay is named after the semi-precious stone carnelian, examples of which are occasionally found washed up on the shore.[2]
