    Tips

    For Poldark fans, this was the beach used as Nampara Cove for the popular BBC series. The cliffs above are where Ross was frequently seen riding his horse.

    Although small where Porthcothan Bay meets land, at low tide it widens out to reveal a network of coves and caves at either end of the beach.

    There are public toilets, plus a shop and lifeguard cover during the summer (May to September).
