Carbis Bay Beach

About

Carbis Bay is a picturesque seaside resort village tucked into the rugged shores of Cornwall’s Southwest Coast, just a mile southeast of the bustling town of St Ives. With its wide, golden beach, calm Atlantic waters and gentle dunes, the bay is a favourite spot for families, surfers, swimmers and nature lovers alike. The village’s layout is a blend of traditional Cornish charm and modern convenience, highlighted by the historic Carbis Bay Hotel, the beautiful parish church of St Anta and All Saints, and the iconic Knill Monument. Beyond the beach, the South West Coast Path winds along the cliffs, offering spectacular panoramic views and a tranquil escape from the bustle of mainland life. In June 2021, Carbis Bay proudly hosted the 47th G7 summit, underscoring its importance as a venue for both leisure and international diplomacy.
