The term "hidden gem" is often used to describe some of the more remote beaches in Cornwall, but if there is any one beach that deserves this title it would be Lantic Bay. Located on the quiet, but stunning stretch of coast between Fowey and Polperro this is not the kind of place you simply stumble upon. However, once found you will be rewarded by a vista of near white sand and turquoise water all set in a bay backed by high, verdant cliffs. Technically there are two beaches in Lantic Bay, Little Lantic and Great Lantic beach. At low tide you can walk between the two but with the rising tide they become separate coves. To the western end of the beach are a some further secluded coves which again are easily reachable at low tide, however care must be taken not to get cut off by the retuning tide. The beach here is mostly sand, although there are patches of pebble and shingle depending on how far up or down the beach you go. With a shoreline that shelves quite steeply Lantic Bay is an ideal place to visit by boat, and a large proportion of visitors do. This also makes it good for swimming, but care must be taken as there can be strong rip currents at certain states of tide. Being as secluded as the beach is there are no lifeguards. Park in the NT car park at the top. It's a long, steep walk down and back up, again but its well worth it!

Very difficult to get to- long walk down steep paths - or easy via boat. But worth it - flat calm seas with the right winds, crystal clear water and very quiet due to the above reasons. Bring a BBQ and get settled in!

Worth the walk down the coast path to get to one of the best beaches.

Absolutely gorgeous sandy beach and the walk here along the coastal path from Fowey is just wonderful.

One of the best beaches in the country and one of Cornwall's best kept secrets. Great out of season and often have the beach to yourself and left wondering am I really in the UK?
