I popped down to Porthleven today 07/01/22 expecting to see much bigger waves as the winds and swell were high.
Maybe I got there a bit too late. It was still worth going out and having a butchers though as it is always enjoyable to watch the rough seas anywhere in Cornwall.

Porthleven is definitely one of the best places to storm watch in Winter in Cornwall.
It’s not unusual for 50ft waves to batter the coast of Porthleven particularly when you get a named storm hitting the coast of Cornwall. If you are looking for spectacular stormy seas during storm season then head down to Porthleven.
