Portmellon is a very small village and cove. The road closely hugs the sandy beach, which is completely covered by the sea at high tide.

There is a snack shack in the beach carpark and a pub next door if you are in need of sustenance.

If you approach Portmellon from the South West you will see the 'Beware Waves' sign on your left. Take heed on stormy days as the waves crash right over the road and can even hit the houses.
