Access

Park in The Island Car Park next to the beach. Arrive very early as most of the spaces are for permit holders. Alternatively get the park and ride train in from St Erth (it’s a top train ride). Parking in St Ives in the summer is very difficult, so arrive early or get the train in.

Description

A real gem of a swimming beach in St Ives. Calm most of the time (except on a easterly wind). Clear water and a lovely sandy beach with a cafe for a hot drink after.
