A picturesque beach with soft, golden sand and crystal-clear turquoise water, surrounded by rugged cliffs and scenic coastal paths. The beach is a haven for water sports enthusiasts, with opportunities for surfing, paddleboarding, and kayaking. At low tide, the beach reveals a vast expanse of sand, perfect for building sandcastles or simply relaxing in the sun. The coastal path offers stunning views of the surrounding coastline, with the iconic Porthbean Lighthouse standing tall at the eastern end of the beach.
Really nice beach which is sandy but does have rock pools for the kids. Has a pay and display car park just a short walk away, about 100 metres. Not to busy either so has plenty of space.
A short hike to the north from the Hidden Hut is this amazing beach. It was practically deserted. The hike also has a ton of wild blackberries to enjoy in late August. :)
Short walk from Porthcurnick beach / The Hidden Hut and well worth it. Only a handful of people at mid day on a Friday in July.
Beautiful place Very peaceful Worth seeing
Lovely secluded beach, but quite steep steps to reach.
Lovey quiet beach. Access through some steps but not too difficult!
