Loe Bar Photo
Description:Large sand and gravel beach which is the middle part of Porthleven Sands and acts as a sand bank between the sea and The Loe freshwater lake. Beach is usually quite due to limited parking and no facilities

Directions:Approach Helston on the A394 from the east or west. Alternatively drive to Redruth on the A30 and at Redruth take the B3297 to Helston. At Helston follow the A3083 to Lizard. About 2 miles after Helston turn right to Gunwalloe. After 2 miles turn right at Gunwalloe and continue on this road until a junction. Turn left and then just before a farm turn right onto a very narrow country lane. Along here is a small car park. Just beyond the car park, the lane becomes a gently sloping gravel track not suitable for cars but can be walked to the beach. Alternatively, park at Porthleven and walk the coast path south (about 1 mile)
