Helford Passage Beach

Description

Helford Passage Beach is a peaceful area renowned for its serene seas, picturesque surroundings, and quaint village vibe. It is situated along the Helford River on Cornwall’s southern coast. This beach provides a tranquil haven that is ideal for people looking to spend a day by the sea. The beach, which slopes gradually into the calm, clear waters of the Helford River, has a mixture of coarse sand and shingle. The water is very still due to the sheltered location, which makes it perfect for kayaking, paddling, and swimming.

Helford Passage Beach is located within the charming and hospitable tiny community of Helford Passage. The community is home to the famed Ferryboat Inn, a historic inn with mouthwatering fare and breathtaking river views. For those who want to explore both sides of the Helford River, a seasonal foot ferry that runs close by and connects Helford Passage with the village of Helford on the other side of the river offers convenience and a dash of excitement.

The beach has modest facilities to ensure a comfortable visit, such as public restrooms and a small parking area. Helford Passage Beach is the ideal location for a restful and picturesque day trip in Cornwall because of its tranquil seas, quaint village setting, and gorgeous surroundings.
