The local area
Lying in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Talland Bay sits on the unspoilt coastline between Looe and Polperro. There are two small sheltered beaches here: Talland Sand to the west and Rotterdam Beach to the east. Just a few hundred yards from one another, they are both excellent spots for swimming and fishing, and at low tide are particularly good for rock-pooling. If you fancy being a little more adventurous you can take to the water in a kayak, which can be hired from the Talland Bay Beach Café.
The South West Coast Path runs right through Talland Bay, so there are plenty of opportunities to explore the spectacular scenery. It’s just 1.5 miles along the coast path to the quaint fishing village of Polperro, which is pedestrianised, so is best accessed on foot anyway. If you want to travel a little further afield, how about a day out at the Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan or simply spend time relaxing on one of the bigger nearby beaches such as Seaton, Downderry or Lansallos.
Talland Bay is small but classically Cornish with its own long history of smuggling and shipwrecks. You also might notice the two large towers on the eastern side of the bay. These are “measured mile markers” used by ships to calculate their speed. If you walk the coast path to Looe you’ll find two more on the hillside above Hannahfore. Along the way keep your eye out for the array of wildlife, from skylarks hovering and buzzards soaring in the skies overhead to butterflies visiting the wildflowers which surround the cliff paths.
Talland Bay is a great base from which to get out and explore the rest of Cornwall, but if you’re in need of some quality relaxation time, the local beach is the perfect place to enjoy a few lazy days unwinding in a naturally beautiful setting.
