When you visit Praa Sands you will be struck by how white the sand is, blinding in the sunshine and making the water a beautiful turquoise colour. This mile long sandy beach is backed with sheltering sand dunes and is easily accessible from the car park, perfect for families who can enjoy the shallow water, build sand dunes and bask in the sunshine while surfers can take on the surprisingly big waves out back.  

Just opposite the famous landmark of St Michael’s Mount lies Marazion Beach. Relax and take in the atmosphere in the Cornish sunshine, walk to St Michael’s Mount at low tide along the granite causeway, watch kite surfers zoom up and down the length of the beach or try out paddle boarding or sailing. With many rock pools to explore and facilities for sailing and windsurfing lessons there is always something to do on Marazion beach. Dogs are welcome expect between 1 May and end of September when a seasonal dog ban is in place.

A lovely unspoilt beach next door to Gunwalloe named after the silver dollars that were found here when the Spanish galleon the San Salvador was deliberately wrecked just offshore in 1669. Even if you can’t find any treasure today, Dollar Cove is still a gem of a beach for sunbathing, swimming can be good too if you stay close to shore but there are no lifeguards and it can get rough.
