Porthminster Beach

The charming sandy beach of Porthminster Beach may be found in the English coastal town of St Ives, Cornwall. It is well-known for its immaculate golden sands, crystal-clear blue waters, and breathtaking views across St Ives Bay. The beach is a great place for swimming and paddling, especially for families with small children, because it is somewhat protected. During the busiest time of year, lifeguards walk the beach to make sure everyone who enjoys the ocean is safe. In addition to being a popular spot for stand-up paddleboarding and kayaking due to the calm circumstances, Porthminster Beach also offers equipment for hire in the area.

Situated directly on the beachfront, the well-regarded Porthminster Beach Café is one of the beach’s highlights. Both locals and visitors love this award-winning restaurant because it provides delectable seafood meals that are sourced locally and have magnificent views of the harbor. The town center of St Ives provides easy access to the beach, just a short trip along the magnificent coastal path or a leisurely stroll through the charming streets dotted with galleries, shops, and cafes. For the convenience of visitors arriving by car, there is also a parking lot close by, along with restrooms and beach showers.
