Dogs are allowed all year but owners are requested to keep dogs on leads between 9am to 6pm, 1st May to 30th September.

Pendower Beach is 10 miles from Truro and 12 miles from St Austell. Aproaching from the east or west on the A390 about 4 miles east of Truro turn onto the A3078 for St Mawes. Continue on the A3078 past Tregony and Ruan High Lanes and then turn left for Veryan (signposted to Veryan). At Veryan turn right (signposted to Pendower), then follow this road for about 2 miles and then turn right (signposted to Pendower Beach) and follow this road down to the Pendower Beach car park. Alternatively, continue on the A3078 past the Veryan turning and take the next left (signposted to Pendower Beach) to drive down the western approach to Pendower. There is a very small car park on the cliff top.
