Perranporth is one of Cornwall’s biggest and most popular beaches, well-loved by locals and visitors alike. At low tide, it reveals three miles of golden sand, beautifully split in two by the shallow Perrncoombe Stream that gently winds its way across the shore. During the summer months, the beach is packed with holidaymakers, who spread out across the sand, creating a vibrant sea of colourful umbrellas, towels, and windbreaks. However, during a high spring tide, the beach vanishes completely.
