Chapel Porth Beach is a small sandy cove which at low tide extends to a wide beach beyond the cliffs. When the tide is out you can walk south along the beach to nearby Porthtowan. Alternatively, the South West coast path extends along the cliff top in either direction.
Chapel Porth Beach has seasonal dog restrictions, prohibiting dogs from 1st July to 31st August between 10 am โ 6 pm.
Many caves formed by coastal erosion are scattered along this stretch of coastline.
Chapel Porth is renowned for good surf.
There is plenty of parking in the Chapel Porth National Trust car park at the beach, and there are more spaces at the top of the hill above the cove. Other facilities at the beach include toilets, a small cafe and lifeguards in the summer.
