The beach offers beautiful views and a more secluded option away from the busier spots, as equally no facilities. One can also park near Harbour Cove and walk from there.
Trevone Bay
Possibly our guests favourite, Trevone Bay is a Blue Flag-awarded beach known for its golden sands and safe, shallow waters, making it ideal for families with young children. The beach is also great for rock pooling and bodyboarding, offering a mix of activities for a fun family day by the sea. There is a great shop and cafe, which also serves lovely pizza, and a quieter rocky beach to the left which we think is best beach for collecting shells in Cornwall.
Harlyn Bay
Harlyn Bay is a family favorite with its wide sandy beach and gentle surf. It’s perfect for swimming, bodyboarding, and surfing lessons, while the nearby dunes provide plenty of space for picnics and play. As Trevone, lifeguards in summer make it a safe option for families who want to use the sea.
