Cornwall has the largest coastline of any area in England - that's almost 300 miles of coastline, nine river estuaries and about 300 beaches. We have awns, gugs, inlets, coves, estuaries, beaches, strands, cliffs, headlands, points, islets and islands.
There are great wide areas of golden sand, miles of sand dunes, hidden coves, famous spots and infamous places. We have private and public beaches, and the equivalent of two separate coasts.
You can build sand castles, play in warm sand pools; examine low tide, clear, salt water rock pools; explore it, amble it and climb it. Fish from it or on it, dive beneath, skim across the top, paddle, splash and sometimes just stand and look in fascinated awe.
Every time you look it will be different because some part of it will have changed. The tide and light will change with the movement of the moon and sun and as the season changes so will the temper of the sea which shapes the splendour before you.
For all its benevolence the sea can be fickle and in its harsher moments downright evil and so we have sought the wisdom of the people who know of these matters. The Cornish have always lived with the sea, both as friend and foe, there is a history of experience to be drawn on and we ask that you read this advice before visiting our Cornish beaches. To help you gain maximum advantage from your visit we have listed and described the majority of the above described riches. To help you further we have added advice from various sources and brought that together with some handy tips.
