Secluded Beaches in Looe
4 secluded beaches in Looe that reward those willing to walk a little further - quiet coves and hidden sands away from the crowds.
These beaches stay quiet because they take effort to reach - steep cliff paths, long walks from the nearest car park, or tricky descents that deter casual visitors. The payoff is near-empty sand, clear water, and a sense of discovery. Come prepared: most have no facilities, so bring water, food, and everything you need for the day. Check tide times before you go, as some coves disappear at high water. Sturdy footwear is essential for the approach paths.
