St. Ives, Cornwall Is England’s Beach Town for People Who Plan Around Seafood and Art

We’re willing to bet that when it comes to dreamy beach vacations, Cornwall isn’t the first — or 10th — destination that comes to mind. But England’s southwestern tip is dotted with rugged cliffs, largely unspoiled shores, sparkling blue water, and picturesque seaside towns — including St. Ives, often dubbed the area’s crown jewel.

The appeal is obvious: At least seven breathtaking beaches, cozy coastal retreats (stay at the Lifeboat Inn), charming cobblestone streets lined with cottages and boutiques, impressive museums and galleries, and next-level seafood. Whatever you do, don’t leave without eating a piping hot Cornish pasty.
