Megavissey beaches

[reallyneedmoresleep]

We’re off to Cornwall next week; an area we haven’t visited before.
DC are 17, 15 and 13. Any top tips?
Will we be able to paddle board or is the sea there more suited to body boarding?
Thank you lovely Mumsnetters!

I don't remember being able to swim/paddle board there, it's more of a harbour I think?

Caerhayes beach is near Mevagissey and good for body boarding. Car park, toilets and decent cafe/bar.

Mevagissey is harbour, doesn't really have a beach in town, but there is a small beach at Portmellon on the outskirts, we saw people paddle boarding there when we stayed a few weeks ago.

As others have said Mevagissey is a harbour. But there are plenty of beaches around.
Pentewan is just around the corner and there are water sports available to do there.
Caerhays is good as pp says.
