We came here by chance as we drove by and the beach is directly off the road. It is located in a small bay with a pub directly opposite it. Lovely quite little beach perfect to let the dog run with high cliffs on either side

A beautiful mystical cove, not your typical sandy beach, lots of rocks and pebbles covering the sand. Heed caution when / if swimming as there are no lifeguards in proximity to this cove. It's a very hilly area. Fabulous views surrounding. Limited amount of parking in this area. Lots of potential for walking across the coastal path. No nearby shops just two restaurants have to walk 10 minutes uphill to port Isaac for shopping needs. No public toilets.

I was staying nearby. Lovely little cove, mainly of pebbles with some rock pools. Dog friendly, all year around.... with dog mess bins available close by. The beach shelves away gently and along the sides are some steep rocky cliffs.

One of the most beautiful little bays there is. Try the little coastal path just up from the PG pub. Little gem.
