Latest reviews on Pelynt's beaches

Readymoney Cove
10 Nathanial Parker

This picturesque cove is a true gem, offering a haven for swimmers with its crystal-clear waters and safe conditions. Although the beach can get rather crowded during the height of summer, the water remains relatively tranquil, leaving ample space for those looking to take a dip. The surrounding area is a nature lover's paradise, with breathtaking walks that lead towards the Daymark at Gribbin Head. Adding to the charm of this beach is the newly-opened beachside shop, which serves up refreshing hot and cold drinks, as well as delicious ice creams, all with the help of a friendly and welcoming staff. It's worth noting that during the summer months, dogs are prohibited from the beach between 10am and 6pm. If you're lucky, you may even catch a glimpse of a majestic cruise ship or cargo vessel as it sails past, en route to the nearby port of Fowey.

Lantic Bay
10 Kareem Aziz

This so-called amazing beach is nothing but a mediocre stretch of sand with a view that's been hyped up beyond belief. Sure, the water may be clear, but that's hardly a rarity for any beach worth its salt. And as for the cleanliness? It's nothing more than basic maintenance that any self-respecting beach should have. Don't be fooled by the steep hike either, it's just a cheap ploy to make you think you're getting something special. Save yourself the trouble and skip this overrated spot.

Looe beach
8 Kieran Smithson

This charming beach is quite pleasant with all the necessary amenities, such as restrooms and ice cream shops, conveniently located nearby. However, the only drawback is the lengthy hike from the large parking lot on the outskirts of town with all of your belongings. Additionally, as evidenced by my photos, the beach can become quite crowded, resulting in a dense population on the sand.

Polkerris beach
10 Quillan Vandermeer

We stumbled upon one of the most beautiful and serene beaches. It's a delightful stroll through the woods to reach the cove if you park at the top of the hill.

Millendreath Sea Pool
2 Lila Anderson

To be frank, the pool vicinity seems to be in a state of disarray and has been for quite some time. It seems that instead of fixing the issues, they have put in minimal effort to ensure safety. Nevertheless, the adjacent shoreline is one of our preferred destinations.

Seaton beach
10 Kellan Hayes

The beach, located just 3 miles from Looe, is always a pleasant experience and definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. It's popular with dog walkers and the beach cafe offers reasonably priced food with friendly and efficient service. The beach offers beautiful sea views in both directions, but parking is limited to a few dozen metered spots right by the beach. Despite some local flooding and nearby fields turning into ponds on the day we visited, it was still an enjoyable experience.

The warmest month during the year in this area is July, with the air temperature rising up to 18.5°C and the water temperature up to 17.5°C. The coldest month is January, with the air temperature dropping down to 7.6°C and the water temperature down to 10.1°C.
