Grid Ref: SW596429 Also known as Fisherman's Cove, this beach is well known among'st naturists. It is a beautiful little cove on the north coast of Cornwall near Navax Point and not too far from St. Ives and Hayle. The rocks are dark and the sand very soft. There is a regular group of local naturists who use this beach.
There are rock pools at either side of the beach and there is no lifeguard service so caution is advised when swimming although the beach is generally sheltered.
At high tide the beach is very much reduced in size with just a small strip of sand. On the low tide there is plenty of sand and it is possible to walk around to the neighbouring Castle Giver Cove to the west.
Check the tides before visiting and it is wise to go in the morning as in the afternoon the beach is usually in the shade.
This beach does involve a fairly precarious journey down a small path on the cliffside - caution should be taken.
There are many seals around this part of the coast - please give them the space they deserve.
