About This Place

There isn’t much in the way of beach at Rinsey, which is dominated by the ruined engine house of Wheal Prosper. Popular with anglers, and sometimes surfers, but dangerous for swimmers. --> Good walks along the cliff to Porthleven or Praa Sands.

💡 Our Take

Looking for a dog-friendly Cornish escape? DogParkUK recommends Rinsey Head Beach! This sandy haven welcomes furry friends year-round, perfect for off-lead exploration. While parking is available, nearest facilities are a drive away, so pack accordingly. The swimming can be unsafe at times due to strong currents - keep a close eye on your dog! Rinsey is ideal for confident swimmers and bigger dogs who love a romp. Perhaps not best for puppies or anxious dogs given the open space and potential for boisterous playmates. Always bring fresh water and poop bags to keep this beautiful spot pristine for everyone!
