This is a mainly stone cove, just South of the village centre. It can be reached just off the coastal path and dogs are permitted on this beach all year. The water here is crystal clear.

One of several small coves opposite St. Anthony Beach. Access is limited due to lack of parking although alternative access is available by parking at St. Anthony and taking the passenger ferry across the creek (ask in the boat hire shop). The cove is sheltered, quiet and good for young children.

A beautiful little slice of Cornish history; a small fleet of boats still fish from this pretty little cove.

This beautiful cove can only be accessed by the coastal path, which means it offers seclusion for those who seek tranquility!

There are great views across the Fal estuary from this sheltered little cove. Sit and watch the comings and goings of the boats, or go rockpooling at low tide. This is a shingle beach with car parking nearby.

The beach is small, but good for swimming and fishing. Close to the harbour in the attractive fishing village of Coverack.
One of three delightful small coves which are sheltered and backed by woodland. Access is along the coastal path from either St Anthony or Helford.
One of several small coves opposite St. Anthony Beach. Parking is limited; however, a novel way to visit is by passenger ferry from St. Anthony (ask in the boat hire shop) or take the stepping stones across Gillan Creek. These are submerged for three hours either side of high tide and covered in seaweed when exposed. The cove is sheltered and secluded.
