Church Cove
A good family beach with National Trust parking and a small cafe. The tiny 15th Century church on the north side of this cove is slowly being buried in sand but still manages to lend an ethereal feel to this beach.

Praa Sands
A wide swathe of sand that draws families here every summer, Praa Sands beach faces south and is said to benefit from the longest sunshine hours of any place in the country. Praa Sands is one of the few south coast bays to enjoy great, consistent waves and as such is a magnet for surfers.

Praa Sands
The village of Praa Sands revolves entirely around the wide swathe of sand that draws families here every summer. Facing south, the beach is said to benefit from the longest sunshine hours of any place in the country. Praa Sands is one of the few south coast bays to enjoy great, consistent waves and as such is a magnet for surfers. There’s also a 9-hole golf course and two good restaurants which specialise in local seafood.
