  • Pendower Beach is situated within a bay on the Roseland Peninsula south of Truro. It is a fairly remote and rural spot but all the same quite popular due to the extensive sandy beach.

    Within the beach there are low soft cliffs and rock pools which have been designated Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI’s).
