Access

Park in the field parking just before St Levan Church, walk down past the church and turn left onto the footpath which leads down the valley and onto the beach. Lots of steps down to the beach.

Description

White sandy beach that has a shore break/dumping waves at high tide like Porthcurno around the headland. Much less people here to due the access. No lifeguards. Strong rip currents when there is swell.

    Worth the extra walk from Porthcurno. We got lucky and swam here on a flat day. Apparently it can be dangerous when the waves are big.
