This beach is truly beautiful and could be considered a hidden gem, if such things still exist in Cornwall. Additionally, the beach is covered in gray pebbles.

The beach is truly amazing with its gray pebbles, and I would rate it a perfect 10 out of 10. The village itself is also quite stunning.

This seaside destination boasts a tranquil atmosphere, setting it apart from other bustling beaches. For a mere £4, visitors can conveniently park their vehicles for the entire day. The beachfront cafe is a standout feature, offering exceptional fare mere steps from the shore. While the aftermath of two recent storms has left a scattering of small rocks and pebbles, there is still an abundance of sand to relish. With its serene ambiance and convenient amenities, this beach is a must-visit for those seeking a peaceful seaside retreat.

This stunning and isolated beach boasts pristine sands that are carefully tended to by all its visitors. The lack of litter and ample space between beachgoers make for a serene and peaceful atmosphere. The tranquil and crystal-clear waters of the sea are a sight to behold, creating a truly idyllic setting.

To start with, the beach in question is conveniently located near the main road, but it can be narrow and winding in certain areas, so be prepared to back up if necessary. Accessing the beach is a short stroll from a paid car park, which costs around £4 as of April 2019, and you'll pass by a charming beach cafe along the way. The beach itself is reachable via a set of steep steps with a railing directly in front of you or a ramp to the right, which is ideal for those with wheelchairs. The majority of the beach is sandy, with only a few rocks, making it relatively easy to walk on. There are also a few rock pools that are perfect for children to explore, and the area is exceptionally clean. However, be aware of the warning signs regarding the sandy cliffs, which are prone to collapse and may be unsafe for children to climb.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Perranuthnoe beach (Cornwall) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Perranuthnoe beach (Cornwall) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Perranuthnoe beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
