Porthcurnick Beach is located in South East Cornwall and situated in the Roseland Peninsula. This beach is a short walk away from Portscatho Beach and Portscatho village. At high tide it leaves the beach with a small beach but at low tide the beach opens up along with the rock pools on either side of the beach. If you want to come swim here we advise against it as there are strong rip currents and no lifeguards on duty year round. The beach has a cafe backed on to it along with portaloos.
