Porth Mear Cove — photo spot in Porthcothan, Padstow PL28 8LW, UK
Porth Mear Cove
Small, sheltered sandy cove framed by rugged Cornish cliffs and weathered rock stacks — excellent for intimate seascapes, tidal-pool closeups and dramatic surf shots. Best at low tide to expose foreground rocks and pools; sunrise and golden hour deliver warm side-light and long shadows. Access via coastal path from Porthcothan; steep steps down from the car/parking area. No fees but parking in Porthcothan is limited in summer; check tide and swell forecasts and wear grippy shoes on slippery rock
