An exposed granite pier guarding Porthleven Harbour with quick access to deep, kelpy water in the harbour mouth. Summer shoals of mackerel and scad pass close, while wrasse and pollack patrol the walls and rough ground. After dark, pouting, poor cod and the odd conger show. Best on settled seas...

It’s a wide, gently shelving sand/shingle beach with clean ground and occasional rough/weed patches toward the Penzance end. The mark fishes year-round: surf conditions after a southwesterly blow bring bass close, while settled, clear weather in summer sees...
