Mounts Bay is located on the south coast of Cornwall and features four designated bathing waters: Wherry Town, Penzance, Heliport, and Marazion. The beaches in the area are sandy resorts backed by sea defences, with Heliport beach being approximately one kilometre wide. The Ponsandane Brook flows onto the western end of Heliport beach.
There are several beaches in the Mounts Bay area, each with its own unique characteristics. Eastern Green Beach is the closest beach to Penzance and is accessed via a concrete footpath from the bus station. The sheltered sand and shingle beach follows the curve of Mount’s Bay to Long Rock, offering clean water and safe swimming, making it popular with locals. Long Rock Beach itself is formed by an expanse of hard sand backed by coastal protection walls of granite. The beach is popular with walkers and looks out to St Michael's Mount, with a cycle path running along the back of the beach.
Eastern Green Beach is part of a long stretch of sand from west Chy-an-Dour in Penzance to Marazion, on the Cornwall coast. The beach offers panoramic views and ample opportunities for beachcombing and sunbathing, making it the perfect spot for a day of coastal exploration.
It is worth noting that the description of Long Rock Beach is repeated, however the key points remain that the beach has an expanse of hard sand backed by coastal protection walls of granite, is popular with walkers, and looks out to St Michael's Mount with a cycle path along the back.
Long Rock Beach is adjacent to the South West Coast Path.
