Great Perhaver Beach is located in South East Cornwall and situated on the Roseland Peninsula just a short walk away from Gorran Haven village. This sheltered beach has no facilities and doesn’t get as busy as neighbouring beaches due to this fact. Low tide opens up rock pools filled with Cornish marine life and the water is crystal clear around these parts, swimming is really good here but always be cautious when entering the sea as there isn’t lifeguard cover here. During high tide the beach disappears leaving nothing behind.
