The vista is constantly changing as the tide sweeps in and out revealing sandy coves just below The Lighthouse. The beautiful beaches of Porthminster, Lambeth Walk and the Harbour are all within a few minutes walk.

A couple of minutes walk along The Warren brings you to Lambeth Walk one way or Porthminster beach the other way. Just past Harbour Beach is the small Bamaluz beach which then leads to Porthgwidden Beach where you can find the Porthgwidden Beach cafe/restaurant. Further round the headland brings you to Porthmeor Beach, reknowed for its surf and sunsets.
