Wander along the beach
Whether the sun is shining or not, no visit to Perranporth is complete without sinking your feet into the sand; shoes or no shoes, depending on your mood and the weather!

The quieter beach provides the perfect opportunity for some fresh family photos; the rolling waves are a picturesque backdrop.
