Summers Beach is located in South East Cornwall and situated in St Mawes. Just a short walk from the village centre, this is definitely the best beach in St Mawes. Perhaps not the sandiest of beaches, it’s still a decent one. If you can brave the cold water, the sea is great to swim in as well with a small platform you can go over to and dive off. Make sure you keep an eye out for jelly fish though and always be cautious when entering the sea as there aren’t any lifeguard cover.
St Levans Well is located in West Cornwall near the beautiful beaches of Porthcurno beach and Pedn Vounder beach the two top rated best beaches in Cornwall.
