Portscatho Beach

In front of the charming fishing village of Portscatho lies the humble Portscatho beach. Stretching all the way north to Porthcurnick beach at low tide, Portscatho beach is a mixture of sand and pebble and enjoys scenery capable of bewitching all who stumble across it.

Portscatho

Fun to rockpool way over to Porthcurnick at low tide. Lots to watch from the Lugger or Tatam's at any time.

Seals

Two seals could be seen most days close to the beach. Tide comes right in. During low tide rock pools to the side of the beach.
Beach good for swimming.

Portscatho Beach

A nice wide beach at low tide but no sand at all at high tide.
Fine for families but closed to dogs during the summer until 30th September.
