The popular resort of Perranporth lies at the southern end of a three-mile beach of golden sand, popular for surfing and land yachting, as well as being a good family beach with lifeguards in the season. The beach is framed by the rugged cliffs of Cligga Head and Penhale Point. These heather clad promontories are complemented by an impressive sand-dune system, which lies immediately inland from the beach and is nationally important for its wildlife. Within the dunes is the site of St Piran’s Oratory, the lost church of ‘St Piran in the sand’. The site is buried again, but a model can be found in the Perranzabuloe Folk Museum, which also exhibits artefacts from the parish’s mining and fishing past. Perranporth Golf Club has a fine 18 hole golf course. The village has a boating lake and the local airfield is used for gliding. Perranporth has many shops, cafes and restaurants, whilst the town’s hotels and guesthouses take in the magnificent views of the coast. Population 6,000
