About
Perran Sands (Perranuthnoe Beach) is a flat beach with a large area of sand, although when the tide is in, sand is very limited.
At the far east of the beach, you have some smaller coves that are more pebble and rocky in nature and can be accessed from the main beach at low tide or from the coast path when the tide is higher.
The coastal paths near Perranuthnoe offer stunning views of St Michael’s Mount and a range of walking route options.
