• Welcome to
    Porthminster Beach

    The perfect beach for your St Ives get away.
    In the summer enjoy the sheltered aspect of the beach away from the prevailing winds, in the winter enjoy the drama as you watch the Atlantic swells crash over Godrevy Lighthouse on the other side of the bay.

About Porthminster Beach

Porthminster Beach, nestled beneath the steep slopes of Porthminster Point, with unbeatable and uninterrupted views to St Ives Harbour on one side and Godrevy Lighthouse, across the Bay, on the other.

No holiday in St Ives would be complete without going to the beach. Porthminster Beach is one of the cleanest beaches in the South West.

Porthminster Café, located right on the beach, is a multi-award-winning seafood restaurant. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly.
