Ready to swim in your undies, welcome to Portheras Cove!

Portheras Cove is a hidden gem tucked away just before you reach Pendeen lighthouse, making it one of the last truly local beaches in the area. This sandy cove, owned by the Duchy of Cornwall, is nestled at the end of a shallow valley with sheer cliffs at one end.

While access isn't the easiest and there are no facilities, the rugged but inviting beauty makes it well worth the effort.
