Beaches.
Cornwall is known for its amazing beaches, and us people who live down here are so lucky to have all of these beaches to ourselves.
There are over 200 beaches down here and I've only been to a few of them, but the ones I have been to are beautiful.
One of my favourite beaches is Porthtowan. Its such a pretty a lush beach and the sunsets there are the best! There used to be huge sand dunes but when we had the bad storms down here last winter they have gone. There is a bar there called Blue Bar which is where all the surfers hang out after a surf and also all the locals go for a nice meal. I went there during the summer for a meal with my family that had come down and there was an amazing sunset.
I spent most of my evenings this year at Maenporth in Falmouth. Maenporth is a small beach with a little cafe. We went down to Maenporth most evenings for a bbq, bonfire, swim and gopro filming. (Most of my summer video was filmed there). Once we went there and I was in the sea with my cousin and then there was loads of dolphins jumping out of the water and it was amazing it made my day.
Gyllngvase beach is a very well known beach down here in Falmouth. Its a man made beach, with a cafe which has amazing food. There's a 20 minute little walk on the cliffs to Swampool, which is similar to Gyllngvase but has Elemental, which is an outdoor sports centre. I spend most of my time at Gyllngvase when we go to meet up with family and when I meet my friends.Gylly also has a tropical garden just behind it which is so beautiful, with some amazing flowers and plants.
My all time favourite beach at the moment is Lelant near St Ives. When its a hot sunny day the sea is a lush turqoise and it looks like the Caribbean, because of its white sand too. It has a river running through it that leads to the sea. My labradoor doesn't really like the sea but she loves the river but it does has strong currents so your not really allowed to swim in it, but it is good for kayaking and boats. The best thing about this beach is that it is always quiet (well it is whenever I go there).
