Stunning local beach a short drive away parking at Pendeen lighthouse or a short walk from the barn on the south west coast path. Be aware currents are strong so swimming should be kept close to the shore. There are no lifeguards. A waterfall brings a river onto the beach. Rarely busy as it entails a walk to get there but always beautiful.
