A vast expanse of sand at low tide, Porthtowan Beach is a firm family favourite. The beach is flanked by some fascinating caves, cliffs, and rock pools to explore, or alternatively there’s a children’s play park at the top end of the beach. Porthtowan's greatest claim to fame, however, arguably comes from its fantastic, curling break, ideal for surfing and with lifeguard cover nearby in the peak season, it's a great place to experience your first surf. Amongst a selection shops, the famous ‘Blue Bar’ sits at the head of this beach.
The Porthtowan area makes for an exceptionally beautiful stretch of Cornwall's iconic South West Coast Path, and additionally features numerous relics from Cornwall's history. The walk along the cliffs to the east rises and falls over grassy hills adjacent to spectacularly sheer cliffs, and eventually wanders past the remains of the engine house at Wheal Charlotte.
