About this beach
Perranporth is a large resort beach. At low tide it joins with Perran Sands, forming a large beach. During the two hours before/after high water they are cut off from each other. Perranporth beach is popular with surfers and body boarders. There is a large car park on the seafront giving access to the beach as well as the paths through the sand dunes.
