Portholland Beach (3.4 miles)
Portholland is a lovely cove, unchanged for around 100 years it is near to Porthluney Cove overlooking Veryan Bay. The beach disappears when the tide is in but it is much loved by the people of Tregony and has a good car park. In the summer there is a small cafe providing refreshments and home-made cakes called Lands End. Toilets and rock pools make it a good family beach but the approach lanes are narrow.

Hemmick Beach (3.8 miles)
Pretty little sandy beach. It's about a 10 minute walk from the nearest car park and there are no facilities in the immediate vicinity, but this means that it is generally quite quiet and not crowded.

St Austell (4.5 miles)
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.
