About This Place

Small stretch of sheltered sand tucked in behind the harbour wall in Hugh Town. Overlooked by most visitors, the beach is usually empty on account of it requiring a climb down. --> The beach is only accessible during low tide and all but disappears at high tide.Given it’s sheltered location, Arlo Porth is a safe spot for swimming and snorkelling.

💡 Our Take

Arlo Porth Beach, in Cornwall, is a fantastic year-round, dog-friendly gem! Your furry besties will adore the soft, golden sands, and being allowed off-lead any time of year makes it liberating. Parking is convenient, and you'll find essential facilities a short walk away. The calm waters make this an ideal spot for confident swimmers, though always supervise. Remember to bring fresh water, as the sea can be tempting to drink! We recommend this haven especially for energetic dogs who love a good run and a paddle - pure bliss!
