Chapel Porth

Two miles southwest of St Agnes sits one of Cornwall's most beautiful coves. Chapel Porth is a wild, rocky beach framed by steep, gorse-covered cliffs. Above the cove is the ruined engine stack of Wheal Coates, and from here the coast path winds all the way to the blustery outcrop of St Agnes Head. It's a panorama that graces many a postcard – don't forget your camera.
