Perranporth Beach

Dunes, surf & a vast sweep of sand

PERRANPORTH

Wild, windswept Perranporth is a classic Cornish beach. Here an expanse of sand (3 miles at low tide) is edged by extensive dunes. Even in the height of summer you’ll find plenty of space to yourself.

Surfers love the consistently good swell. Hikers love the trails through the dunes. Families love the fact that they can be near a range of cafes, shops and kit hire shops.

The beach is also home to the famous Watering Hole pub, a rambling bar with tables set right on the golden sands.
