About this Beach

Treyarnon Bay Beach is a picturesque sandy cove nestled along North Cornwall’s rugged coastline. This north-facing beach boasts golden sands stretching for nearly half a mile at low tide, backed by grass-topped dunes. It’s a haven for families, surfers, and nature lovers alike. The beach welcomes dogs year-round, making it perfect for four-legged companions. During the summer months, lifeguards patrol the waters, ensuring safer swimming and surfing conditions for visitors.

The beach’s natural beauty is complemented by its excellent facilities. Visitors will find toilets near the car park, and a seasonal café nearby offers refreshments. At low tide, numerous rock pools emerge, providing endless entertainment for children eager to discover marine life. The northern end of the beach reveals a natural bathing pool, a unique feature that adds to Treyarnon’s charm. Surfing enthusiasts will appreciate the consistent waves, with break points to the right and a larger swell over the reef to the left.

Beyond the sand, Treyarnon Bay offers breathtaking coastal walks. A short five-minute stroll leads to Constantine Bay, while more adventurous hikers can continue on to Booby’s Bay and even Padstow for a more challenging trek. The South West Coast Path showcases some of Cornwall’s most spectacular scenery along this stretch. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful day of sunbathing, an active surf session, or a family outing filled with rockpooling and sandcastle building, Treyarnon Bay Beach provides a delightful escape into Cornwall’s coastal beauty.
