On the north coast and in an enviable position situated between Watergate Bay and Newquay, Porth is a delightful, sheltered cove with a fantastic long, sandy beach that is level with the road. Although only one mile along the coast from lively Newquay, Porth is a total contrast. It’s close enough if you like the buzz of a busy seaside town but far enough away to be a tranquil retreat.
