💡 Tips

  • Check the tide tables daily; the famous tidal pool is only accessible and visible at low tide.
  • Arrive before 10:00 AM during the summer months as the bay’s car park fills up very quickly.
  • Walk north along the South West Coast Path to Trevose Head for a chance to spot seals.
  • Visit the nearby village of St Merryn for the best local amenities, groceries, and fuel.
  • Pack a windproof jacket, as the Atlantic breeze can be chilly even on sunny days.
