Perranporth

Perranporth is on the north coast; it’s the next major beach east of St. Agnes. Looking eastwards, you can see that the coastline begins to be gentler, hinting that further along the hard, rocky cliffs will give way for a while to the sand dunes of Holywell and Crantock. There are sand dunes here as well, and a wooden cafe / pub perched in amongst the dune grass. Perranporth is both wide and deep, ideal for all sorts of beach and water sports, or just being able to walk for ages along the waterline. This morning, a cold, strng and constant wind still makes it difficult to keep your footing on rocky outcrops, but then these are restricted to one granite stack on towards the left anyway...
