Top five beaches for sandy paws in West Cornwall

Porthkidney – Lelant nr St Ives

A true gem hidden behind the dunes in-between Lelant and Carbis Bay. The easiest access point is found by parking by Lelant church and then walking along Lelant beach, around the corner of the cliffs to find a perfect unspoilt quiet secret beach.

Mexico Beach – Hayle

Mexico Towans is a beautiful remote area within a glorious four-mile beach, which begins from the mouth of the Hayle estuary and stretches to the lighthouse at Godrevy Point.

Perranporth Beach – Perranporth

A personal favourite a beach we recently visited and it has it all, miles of golden sand stretching from Droskyn point to Perransands this is a beautiful destination. There is easy access and parking and even a surfers bar on the beach where you can enjoy the sunset with your dog, friends and family over a well-deserved glass of wine.

Long Rock Beach – Marazion 

A beach with a real talking point, enjoy walking the sands of this beach taking in the breathtaking view of the iconic St Michael’s Mount positioned in the middle of the sea. At low tide you can walk and visit the mount which is a must see in Cornwall.

Gwynver Beach

One of West Cornwall’s best-secluded beaches and a neighbour to Sennen cove
