Portmellon


There is no easy way to get here. As you make your tortuous way through narrow winding lanes, you wonder if they really want anyone to visit. The beach itself also seems a bit inaccessable - a steep vehicle ramp from the road, and a launching ramp of steel rails. Not exactly people-friendly, but at low water, it is pleasant enough for a short stroll. From here though, you look out eastwards towards Gribbin Head on the left, knowing that Foye is hiding just behind it. Beyond, the coastline disappears way way into the distant haze towards Plymouth on the Devon border...
