Such a beautiful beach with an amazing view. We visited in March, and it was already lovely, so I can only imagine how stunning it must look during the winter months. The scenery and peaceful atmosphere make it a really special place to visit. There’s also a caravan park nearby, which makes it perfect for a relaxing holiday or a longer stay by the coast. It’s definitely somewhere you could come back to again and again to enjoy the views and the fresh sea air. 🌊🏖️

A great beach with beautiful views that doesn't involve lots of hills and steep steps to get to. It is private so will have to find paid parking in the little village or Pentewan Sands Holiday Park who own it. There is a wooden play park directly on the beach and the camp site is on the grass area so it can be busy as it's their beach.

Excellent beach and rocks. Even better as no dogs allowed for most of the year making a much safer environment for those who don't like dogs bounding up to them out of control. Well done to the locals for making it a great place to visit.

A beautiful beach, visited on a day with didn’t have our dog with us as not allowed on the beach. The sea was all, great for swimming and paddle boarding. Also great for a bit of seaglass collecting.

A very beautiful and peaceful beach. I came here early in the morning a few times with my mum and I felt so calm and happy. The seagulls were funny and made it more interesting too. I saw a few people swimming and next time, I would like to go for a swim too; shame I forgot my swim gear this time! 🏊‍♀️ Some pubs nearby. No dogs allowed sadly during peak holiday times.
