Launch Notes: Be 120% certain of lift before launching. If in doubt â€“ donâ€™t. It is a very short carry from the car park to the rigging area.

Getting there

Approaching St. Agnes from the A30 turn left at the mini roundabout. Continue straight on along the narrow winding road. The â€œmainâ€ road bears left where Chapel Porth Beach is sign posted. Keep on the â€œmainâ€ road. Turn left down a lane toward the sea. There is a height barrier which may be a problem for vans with roof loads. At the T junction turn right into a parking area. Vehicle Access & Parking: There is an obvious parking area. Please leave room for cars to enter and exit.

Airspace: This site is in a Military Low Flying Area. Perranporth Airfield ATZ is 100 yards east of launch. C
