Access

It’s a long walk to this beach. You have a few options but we recommend parking at Carn Galver Tin Mine and walking down the path to join the coast path. Then walk along the coast path (going east) until you reach the top of Porthmeor cove, then take the path down to the middle of the cove.

Description

Not to be confused with Porthmeor Beach in St Ives! This is a secluded low tide gem of a beach that’s mainly visited by people walking the coast path. Rocks and sand with crystal clear water. Spring low tide days are best with no swell if you want a swim.
