The waves lap onto this amazing beach that amazes that it is in the UK! Soft white sand near the cliffs are perfect to rest up on whilst the flat wet sand as the tide goes out is great for ball games.

Ocean Sports Centre
#12 of 22 Outdoor Activities in St Ives
Carbis bay is a great location to try a range of watersports as its more sheltered than many beaches on the north cornish coast and the Ocean Sports Centre have a wide range of kit on which to explore it.
We also did the Hawaiian Canoe as a family with Glenn, again another great experience to see the coast line and witness Carbis Bay from a different perspective.
