Talland Bay in Looe - This dog friendly beach has an astonishing array of naturally pink and blue coloured rocks.

Lansallos Cove, Lantivit Bay & Lantic Bay are all dog friendly beaches, Lantic Bay has recently been voted one of the top ten secret beaches in Cornwall. The car parks are a few minutes drive from us and each beach is a walk of differing lengths and difficulties. The walk to Lansallos Cove has various activity points for the children.

Polperro beach - small, dog friendly beach down by the harbour.

East Looe beach is a large sandy beach, no dogs allowed. It is a long favourite with holidaymakers due to it being a perfect location for swimming and providing easy access for the little ones.

Hannifore beach is very rocky and great for rock pooling, dogs are welcome.
