Perranporth was once a mining village but now attracts thousands of tourists every year, full of family-friendly resorts with miles of golden sand. In Perranporth village there are a few places to eat, along with great coffee shops and beach activity shops, just through Perranporth are two small streams which wind through the town and sides of cottages.
Longrock Beach is a great family beach as there is very little waves and the golden stretch of sand is easily accessible from the town and there is a good sized car park on the right making this beach a choice of many families during the summer. Towards the car park section of the beach this offers some shelter from the wind whilst also being a little sandier above the tide line. Swimming here is particularly safe as it takes a lot of walking to get into even waist deep water.
