Porthkidney Beach & Hayle

Walk 15-minutes along the South West Coast Path, and you’ll stumble across this vast expanse of golden sands known as Porthkidney Beach.

Porthkidney Sands is a stunning, expansive beach located near Hayle on the north coast of Cornwall, England. Stretching for nearly a mile at low tide, this secluded beach is renowned for its golden sands and clear waters, offering a tranquil escape from the busier nearby beaches. 

Porthkidney Sands is backed by picturesque sand dunes and bordered by the Hayle Estuary, making it a haven for birdwatchers, especially as part of the RSPB Hayle Estuary Reserve.
