Carlyon Bay

Carlyon Bay, located on Cornwall’s south coast, is known for its stunning sandy beaches, dramatic cliffs, and coastal walks. A former site of seaside glamour, it offers natural beauty, sea views, and access to nearby St Austell and Charlestown.

Carlyon Bay Beach transforms into a vibrant event destination each summer, blending seaside charm with dynamic entertainment. From May to September, Shoreside hosts live music every Friday night, featuring local rock bands, silent discos, karaoke, and quiz nights—all free to attend .

The beach also offers yoga sessions, open-air theatre, and unique events like beach Frisbee golf and the National Beach Cricket Competition.

With pop-up food stalls and a lively atmosphere, Carlyon Bay Beach is a must-visit for both locals and tourists seeking summer fun.
