This live stream looks out over Pentewan, a small harbour village on the south coast of Cornwall. It is a practical way to check how the sands and the sea look before you set out for the day. The page also shows the local time and the weather forecast for the area.

About Pentewan

Pentewan sits on a sheltered bay on the south coast of Cornwall, a short distance from St Austell. It grew around a former harbour built to ship china clay from the surrounding area, and the old quay and the wide sandy beach are still its most recognisable features. The village has a relaxed, unhurried feel, shaped by the tides and the bright, open coastline of this part of England.

What the camera shows

The camera is titled after the sands, so it is aimed at the beach and the water along the shore. Depending on the view, you may see the tide moving in and out, surfers and walkers on the sand, and changing light across the bay. Mornings and late afternoons are often the most pleasant times to watch, when the low sun gives the sand a warm colour and the crowds are thinner.

Visiting and nearby places

Cornwall has a mild, maritime climate, so the coast is pleasant from late spring into early autumn, though winds can be strong at any time of year. Pentewan is a good base for exploring the south coast on foot. Other cameras on VizCams nearby include the St Austell bird cam and the Readymoney Beach view, and the river at Fowey is a short drive along the coast.
