Chapel Rock

Perranporth

One of Chapel Rock's most unique features is its 'hidden' swimming pool created by building a wall onto an existing rock pool.

As the tide comes in, it refreshes the pool water, leaving behind an idyllic spot to bath once the tide retreats once more.

Bude

Built in the 1930s, Bude Sea Pool is a semi-natural pool created under the curve of the cliffs.
