The Best Things to do in Marazion: A 48-Hour Guide

“You are spoilt for choice when it comes to visiting beaches in Cornwall, but we headed to Porthcurno, which could not have been a better choice. The car park is a short walk away and the water is the most incredible blue.

After a quick swim, we decided not to get back in the car to travel up to the Minack Theatre, but to climb the cliff side steps instead! This is a pretty challenging walk, but if you are able, I highly recommend it. The views are truly incredible!

The Minack Theatre is the most incredible open-air theatre, carved into the cliffs. This alone could easily be your reason to visit Marazion, although it has so much more to offer. We sat in the café, which must have the best views in the UK for a coffee and enjoyed some drinks while watching the shoals of fish below swimming around kayakers. I can’t wait to come back and watch a performance one day.

After a quick shower back at our accommodation, we headed back out to the Godolphin Hotel in Marazion. We had the most fantastic meal sat looking out over St Michael’s Mount. The staff couldn’t have been friendlier and I would highly recommend the lobster butter if you order chips! We had a cocktail each before ending our evening on the beach. The Godolphin is a great spot for people watching and its uninterrupted view to the mount is not to be missed.”
