Tips

Like so many of Cornwall's bays, what looks like a small beach at high tide opens out into a huge place when the tide goes out. There are lots of rock formations to explore at low tide with a smaller inlet to the south west also opening up to become part of the beach when the sea is out. Do check tide times carefully though before walking along the beach so you don't get cut off by the rising water.
