Porthgwidden Beach

Porthgwidden Beach

The smallest beach of soft golden sand in St Ives, near to the Island, and very popular with families as it is very sheltered and quite an east-facing sun trap.

Car parks located in town - but the large car park at the top of town is a hard climb back up. Why not park at Lelant Saltings and enjoy the scenic railway branch line right to the heart of the town.

Please note: A seasonal dog ban applies on this beach from 1 May until 30 September (St Ives Town Council)
