The picturesque Bossiney Cove is the nearest beach to Tintagel. This beach is so quiet in comparison to the surrounding area, because many visitors actually miss it as they head for the legendary Tintagel. Also it is at the bottom of high cliffs so a little tricky to access.

Other than toilets and parking at the top of the cliff, there are no amenities or facilities on this beach because at high tide the water covers the sand completely. There is no lifeguard patrol but bathing is relatively safe. Dogs are allowed all year round.
