St. Austell, United Kingdom Public beach

Frequently mentioned in reviews: Top-rated.online cuts through the clutter, highlighting only the reviews that are most helpful, earn the most likes, or come from the most active contributors. Lovely location beside the historic harbour! Charlestown is full of history, lots to do it's definitely worth a visit. Charming must visit little with parking ( fee payable) at the top of the street, I believe it gets very busy in summer as thier are several places to eat and bars on the side with outside seating. There is a couple of large vessel's permanently moored in the one at least has a resturant on board - lovely little place ❤️ Have visited many times here it’s a nice little beach/harbour area it’s not somewhere you would choose to swim due to it being so rocky and the is only small but it is lovely to spend some time go for a little walk. You can park along the road or car parks which charge. There is often historic ships in the dock unfortunately we didn’t get to see the ‘pirate ships’ which was the carrot to get the kids to go… they liked seeing cannons and old barrels and the short walk. It’s lovely feels like a step back in time… it’s not your sandy day at the as long as your aware and your expectations are aligned then it’s great. Lots of bars, eateries and galleries plus a museum here so chance to learn a few things and educate yourself… Nice little spot. Good parking which is relatively cheap. Plenty of places to eat and public toilets the museum is a little bit expensive at £8 each, although we didn’t go in so inside may be a spectacular! The walls are pretty cool although the right hand side was closed when we visited. Had a mooch about in the rock pools with the misses and the dog, saw some little creatures and generally enjoyed the peaceful quiet beach. It's a mic of pebble, sand and big rocks which makes it very interesting but a little risky if you have kids I'd say. There are loads of great restaurants, pubs, and places for good food in historic Charlestown, so you won't be disappointed. Rebellion is amazing and next time we're down we'll be going to the seafood restaurant and to the pub that's being g renovated after the unfortunate fire. The best feature about Charlestown is the canal lock harbor for the boats, very good photo opportunities here, but again be careful if you have young toddlers or kids sprinting about as when the tide is out there are 20+ foot drops of the end of the sea walls with no barriers at the most southern end! Stunning small beach. Worth a visit. The sea was so clear,it was almost tropical, and the sun was shining which made it even better. The was beautiful and well kept. No litter in sight. Lovely views out to sea and of the harbour/port. Definitely worth taking a walk down from the harbour. Even went for a little paddle as the water was so warm. Highly recommend the visit! We took a spontaneous trip here after going to the Eden Project and were pleasantly surprised both at the and the surrounding eateries and vibe. Would recommend visiting here if nearby! Interesting and quaint that is a world heritage site. Restaurants, pub and museum were all interesting. Could be busy but a good walk along the coastal path. What a hidden gem, I dropped my family off at the Eden project whilst I had some me time fishing off the harbour. As I walked down a slight hill I could have sworn I had been there before which was really confusing as I was 100% sure I hadn't and after mentioning it a local he told me that it had been in quite a few movies like the eagles have landed, Taboo and Dr who amazing what you actually take in whilst watching thes programs. Well worth a visit, plenty of bass off the wall as the tide is coming in using peelers. access Must view town on Cornish coast where Poldark was also filmed. Spare an afternoon to get lunch and potter around galleries and gift shops.
