Set in a vast, sweeping bay and home to one of the most impressive harbours in all of Cornwall, beautiful Porthleven is a camping paradise and a must-visit for every camper taking a holiday on the South Cornwall coast.
The miles-long sandy beach is a boon for families, while its southwest-facing aspect make it a serious swell-catcher for surfers too – in stormy weather the Porthleven harbour walls are a spectacular place to watch the waves. Locally, there are plenty of good Porthleven campsites so, whether you're pitching your tent or parking up a campervan, take your pick and get on down to the south west. Fresh fish on the quay and a healthy serving of Cornish cream teas awaits!
