Portmellon is a coastal settlement in south Cornwall, United Kingdom. It is situated one mile south of the village of Mevagissey and six miles south of St Austell. The sandy beach set in a small cove at Portmellon is safe for bathing and there is a public slipway for launching boats near to the many Portmellon cottages. The beach is around 150 metres long but is completely covered at high tide. At low tide there are plenty of rock pools to explore. Swimming here is considered safe but there are no lifeguards on patrol. On some occasions seals can be seen swimming off the beach or resting on the rocks.
