Porthpean Beach Paddleboard Forecast

Higher Porthpean · United Kingdom

Porthpean Beach scores 79/100 for paddleboard today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces SE. A small, sheltered, SE-facing sandy cove in St Austell Bay with rock pools exposed at low tide to the west. Calm rather than a surf beach, though small waves can form on a straight west wind; mainly used for kayaking, SUP, windsurfing and snorkelling. Unstable cliffs flank the sides. No lifeguard cover. Jet skiing is prohibited; dogs banned 1 July-31 August, 10am-6pm. A significant tidal range means the beach narrows sharply at high water.
