Towns near St Austell
|
|
Approaching St Austell from the west, your first impression will be of a vast, sweeping bay that, on a sunny day, glitters like somewhere far more exotic. St Austell itself is a town in the midst of total transformation; once somewhat workaday, St Austell is now becoming a holiday destination with restaurants, bars and unique shops. The seaside remains the principal draw here, though – from Par Sands in the east to Porthpean in the west, St Austell Bay has many great beaches.

Charlestown
(1.4 miles)
A beautifully unspoilt Georgian harbour town and working port, Charlestown is a stunning little slice of history. At the harbour itself, there is often a variety of traditional ships, including tall ships, many of which are open to the public. The Charlestown Shipwreck and Heritage Centre has many exhibits detailing the seafaring history of the port, including the many sailing disasters the town has borne witness to. The village has two beaches, one either side of the harbour.
