Marazion:
A long sand and pebble beach which stretches from Marazion to Penzance. Good parking and facilities at Marazion and its definitely worth visiting St Michaels Mount. You can visit St Michaels Mount by using the causeway at low tide and use the ferry at high tide.

Penzance:
Large seaside town with many facilities. To the north of the harbour is a sandy beach which stretches to Marazion at low tide. To the south west of the harbour there is a pebble & sand beach by the promenade. There is also an outdoor swimming pool by the seafront.

Perran Sands:
A wide sandy beach close to the village of Perranuthnoe. Not to be confused with Perran Sands at Perranporth on the north coast. Note that there is little sand left at high tide. There is a slipway down to the beach. There are two smaller pebbly beaches to the east, but access is difficult.
