Great beach and is dog friendly only issue being the surf waves are the no dogs end, so if you've got dogs no surfing body body boarding, parking is reasonably priced as well, good views of St. Micheal's Mount

Beautiful views from the beach side, although it can get very windy. And bear in mind there's very limited public transport! I suggest PZtaxis (search online) as they were very good for us!
