Visitors

With a variety of secluded sandy and shingly coves, Prussia Cove is a popular destination for local and other day visitors to swim, dive and fish. Porth-en-Alls welcomes such visitors and provides and maintains a free car park within about five minutes walk of the coastal path. During the summer months, the turnover of cars can exceed this number and an early arrival is recommended as the car park fills up quickly. Spaces are deliberately limited to about 45 spaces so as not to overcrowd the place which is small scale requiring a managed balance. The car park is closed at night and camping in it is not allowed at any time.

Day visitors must leave their car or bike at the top of the drive (open to residents only) and make the short walk to the coast. Along with residents, day visitors must abide by any notices, picking up after their dogs and taking all litter away with them, leaving no trace. Wild animals and farm animals should always be the priority, so wandering off the footpath into woods and short-cutting across fields is strictly prohibited (there are plenty of good footpaths already) to avoid any disturbance. Barbeques are currently prohibited as a fire is so easily started

From time to time, the sea washes up some of it’s unwanted synthetic rubbish (mostly fishing related) onto the shores and it is gratifying that volunteers readily gather this unasked. We then collect it and pay for it’s disposal. Please get in touch if you would like to volunteer on a regular basis, porthenalls@prussiacove.co.uk
