The Beaches of South Cornwall - S42 - MaenporthTHE BEACHES OF CORNWALL. Use the controls to pan or zoom, and click on a yellow marker to view the beach details.
This map is part of the Ordnance Survey's Explorer series designed to replace the old Pathfinder map series. At 1:25,000 scale this detailed map shows a host of attractions including gardens which are open to the public, nature reserves and country parks as well as all official footpaths, bridleways, roads and lanes. Other facilities covered include: camping and caravan sites, picnic areas and viewpoints, selected places of interest, rights of way information for England and Wales, National Trail and Recreational Path routes, and selected tourist information. The series is aimed mainly at the experienced map user but can be used by tourists and locals alike. Location: South Coast - 1 mile southwest of Falmouth
Maenporth Beach lies roughly midway between downtown Falmouth and the Helford River. Its name means cove of the rocks although it is quite sandy after all. The low cliffs shelter the beach from most adverse conditions and it can become very popular in summer. Swimming is quite good here but as usual any warnings displayed should be heeded. There are all the usual facilities here including the added bonus of Wind Surfing or Diving Tuition. There are excellent cliff walks south to Rosemullion Head and the Helford River or the far shorter walk around Pennance Point to Swanpool and Gyllyngvase beaches.
