Whilst I haven’t rated it particularly highly, this is because it’s a beach better known for surfing, than swimming and the conditions aren’t always favourable.
In the right conditions however, the beach offers some glorious swims! You have caves that can be swum through, stacks to swim around…there is a wealth of swimming options.
We’ve gone and made an open water / wild swimming card game - made up of some of our favourite swims from around Cornwall. Cornish Swim Trumps is made up of some stunning open water swims from around Cornwall - including St Michael’s Mount, the St Ives area, Mother Ivey’s Bay and areas around north Cornwall. As well as an entertaining card game the cards also detail 36 different swims from around Cornwall and work well as inspiration for planning your swimming summer (or winter!) in Cornwall.
Cornish Swim Trumps is ideal for a rainy day, as a gift (for a fellow swim enthusiast), Christmas / birthday present….
The cards are split up into 5 categories : Water calrity, accessibility, safety, crowds and wow factor. Each category being marked out of 100 and include some stunning images of each beach / swim.
