We hiked here from St Agnes via the Beacon. Beautiful coastal views including Wheal Coates tin mine which has a fascinating history. Bit craggy and steep getting down to the beach but manageable in decent walking shoes. Make sure to go at low-ish tide to enjoy the expanse of the beach.

We’ve been to Chapel Porth beach many times for the famous Hedge Hog Ice-cream. Mostly it’s been in the winter months when it’s been wet, windy and waves crashing onto the rocks. It’s really impressive in the winter in a storm.
Here comes the but…. we went there in May this year, in the sun, and the tide was out. The winter waves are impressive but the beach that we’d never seen is spectacular. The most amazing clean sandy beach framed by rock pools against a backdrop of rugged cliffs and caves.
There is limited parking adjacent to the beach but this fills up very quickly. Further up the hill is some overflow parking. Or better still park at St Agnes head in the free carpark and walk the cliff path down into the bay.

Visited here to have a walk on the beach. Sadly the tide and weather were against us. However, we were treated to some of the finest white horses we have seen. The site itself is National Trust owned and if your not a member there is a parking fee, however it does provide a useful access point to the surrounding cliff tops and nearby heritage sites. In the car park there is cafe to provide snaks and hot drinks.

The waves were crashing onto what was left of the little Chapel beach today with sea foam everywhere.....like being in a car wash!!! Very exhilarating watching the waves crash in. Red flag day at Chapel.

Absolutely amazing! We managed to get space at the NT parking and grabbed a bite to eat at the cafe before heading down to the beach which was right there! Amazing afternoon!

This is a lovely spot as other reviewers have said. However I do want to warn those who may not be as fit etc. that the sleep slope from the NT car park on to the actual beach is not as easy as it looks. My husband had a terrible fall there last week as the shingle/shale-y time rocks started moving beneath his feet and he had no purchase at all. He injured himself quite badly which spoiled the rest of our holiday. On that note I want to say a HUGE thank you to the life guard that assessed his injuries, the young couple that went to help initially (I couldn’t reach him and was shocked and traumatised !) and to the lovely lady who offered us hot sweet tea Thank you all SO much. My husband wasn’t wearing sensible shoes and had ignored my plea to not attempt to go down to the beach! But I also feel that NT should put up warnings about the dangers of the slope down to the sea - it is definitely not for the faint hearted.

Amazing sandy beach with lifeguards. Dog friendly. Plenty of room for a family cricket match! Towering cliffs with Wheal Coates prominent above the beach, and well worth a walk along the coast path to visit.
Toilets and cafe adjacent.

Have been here in January and I was lucky to be here on a dry but blustery day. Walked to Wheal Coats. Cafe was not open that day. Will go again soon. Its a place I could spend all day at taking photos of the land and seascape. The wind did make it a more adventure to walk up to Wheal Coats so do have a look at the weather forecast.

At low tide, snd in the autumn sun, this beach was amazing, opens up to Porthtowan. Awesome cave too. All the while with the Cornish tin mine overlooking from the cliff.

I don't know because the car park was choc a bloc.
If you are going in the winter I would imagine there are plenty of spaces but if going in the summer or a nice day it fills up very early.
There's a field car park at the top of the hill on the right before you descend, lots of room and lovely lady owner running it but it's about quarter of a mile from the beach. The road is tarmaced so OK if you have disabled scooter/wheelchair.
I think this field is only open at busy times.

When did the chalet bungalow and clares cafe on the front disappear.

Hi everybody
There is absolutely no confusion. There was indeed a bungalow by the car park and beach at Chapel Porth and there was a tea hut selling tea, coffee, hot chocolate, Horlicks (remember Horlicks....), cold drinks (remember Vimto and Tizer....), sandwiches, cakes and ice creams. It was run by a lovely lady called Clare - Mrs. Clare Guard (later she became Clare Donald), Apart from running the tea hut she used to swim and sunbathe when time allowed and was a thoroughly lovely outdoor person. She used to live in a little bungalow/chalet about a mile away from the beach and half way or so between Chapel Porth and St.Agnes, more or less opposite the turning into Beacon Drive.
I holidayed at Chapel Porth every year from about 1954 to well into the '70s initially with my Mum and Dad, my brother, my uncle and aunt, my cousin, our grandparents and our Alsatian dogs - and later on with one girlfriend or another.............. We used to rent a bungalow at the top of the road leading down to Chapel Porth beach where on one side we could look right down the road to the beach and on the other we could see across to the disused tin mine 'Wheal Charlotte'. I used to walk our dogs around this valley every morning while my Dad, giving my Mum a break, cooked the breakfast. Very often Clare would pay us a visit on her way down to the beach in the mornings, together with her dogs - all West Highland Whites - firstly Donnie, Kelpie & Mac and when they died, Hamish & Dougall. Clare was just a bit Scottish......... She was also a very good artist and her bungalow was festooned with many of her own pictures and other handicrafts.
The chalet/bungalow to which the earlier correspondent referred was indeed there but was knocked down in, I am guessing, the mid '60s - why I don't know. Often I used to walk past this very bungalow on my way down to the beach because there was a path down from the top of the valley near our own bungalow that one could use instead of taking the road - as a kid I used to say "Mum, I'm going down to the beach 'the Country Way"..........
In the early days, Clare's original tea hut was right on the front and really a bit spartan but this was replaced in the early '60s, c/o The National Trust I suppose, by the hut that I believe still stands there today, at the other end of the car park and further away from the beach.
We used to swim, we used to surf, we used to play mammoth games of cricket on the beach with and against other families (from Birmingham and Manchester, we were from London....), we used to boast that we'd go out with the life saving equipment if ever it was needed but we never did......! Sometimes in the evening, Mum and Dad would take us out to one pub or another for a drink after supper - 'The Miners Arms in nearby Mithian or 'The Commodore' in Porthtowan. When the weather was bad on the north coast we used to get in the car and drive to the south where very often it was totally different - Cadgwith, Porthleven, Helford village, St. Mawes - it was bliss.
The walks from Chapel Porth were quite superb - in one direction over the cliffs to Wheal Coates tin mine and beyond towards St. Agnes, in another direction the clifftop walk to Porthtowan and a little further inland the walk to and up St. Agnes Beacon. We loved these walks and so did our dogs.......... By the bungalows where we used to stay was a farm with a riding stables and a stream running through it and down to the beach (I guess from Mount Hawke...) where if you were clever enough you could fish for trout.
Since the '70s I have been only an occasional visitor to Chapel Porth because of getting married, starting a family, having heavy working and other commitments, much of them overseas, but I still love the place dearly. With its white stones picking out the name 'CHAPEL PORTH' on the hillside, for me it has the best beach, the best sea and the best scenery that I have ever seen and if it had at least something approaching Mediterranean weather it would be a true paradise.
My family, now with the kids grown up, have determined we shall all visit again this year, we need only to find the right accommodation close by and the most suitable dates. Searching for these is how I came across this site - by accident - I never knew it existed.
I hope any readers of this 'mish-mash' of childish and sentimental recollections will forgive my ramblings but I have enjoyed going down memory lane once more and I hope that maybe some of you have too.
