At low tide this is a large beach with incredibly soft sand. The location is stunning and the sea is good for snorkelling. There are some lovely rockpools and caves for exploring.
There is a campsite nearby so prepare for it to be busy during summer holidays.
Access to the beach is via a scramble over rocks so isn't the easiest. At high tide there is no usable beach and so do check tidal times before you arrive and be ready to leave before high tide.
There used to also be access via a ladder and stairway but this is no longer there and the path to it has also been blocked off due to unstable ground. If anyone hears that this stairway is replaced and the pathway considered safe again please do let ANW know.

More direct access is from the smaller Bessy's Cove carpark. Turn off the A394 opposite the Packet Inn pub in the direct of Prussia Cove. Follow the narrow, one lane, road through several turns until you get to the roads end and a small carpark. Then follow the public footpath/private road way until you get to Prussia Cove (about a ten minute walk). You will pass Bessy's Cove below on your right and walk through the beautiful rental accommodation of Porth En Alls.

This was our first ever naturist beach experience, and what a beautiful place to start. The sand was soft and white, the sea clear and blue and due to its sheltered location, it was a real little sun trap.
We sat at the far end of the beach with another wonderful family, well away from the textiles,...

We visited this lovely beach one sunny day in September. Getting to the beach was a little awkward. The walk was very nice though - it is in a lovely part of the coastline, with attractive buildings and lots of blackberries to nibble on the way. To get to the beach we arrived 2 hours after high tide...
