Beware that on Carne and Pendower Beach dogs should be onlead from May 1st until September from 9am until 6pm. Bonkers! Why not Peak holiday time as other beaches. Nevertheless, one fabulous beach when the tide goes out!

Car park is next to the beach, dog friendly all year round. The sea doesn't take a long walk on the beach to get too and gets deep quicker than most beaches. There's a great café right next to the beach/car park. There's a mile walk to a lovely tea room with a pond.

We ended up at this beach because the beach we were going to the car park was full. I am glad it was because this beach is amazing. The car park is National Trust with a good few spaces but make sure you have coins on you to pay for the parking. The beach itself is great at low tide lots of sand to enjoy, most people stay by the path so better to the right hand side. Lots of rock pools to explore and there is a cafe to buy drinks, ice creams and food. 5 out of 5 rating.

No disabled access, Toilets available, sandy beach, big waves on a still day, good for surfing. The coastal path is very beautiful and a fairly easy walk. On a sunny January day it felt warm and sheltered
