Three miles of golden sand in the bay of St Ives

This beach has great views across the bay and is ideal for sunbathing and beach games. Swimming is good but you should stay between the flags and avoid the estuary. There are also good walks across the dunes (The Towans) if you want to get away from the beach.

Beach facilities include toilets, cafes and lifeguard cover during the summer months.
