The image displays two maps of Porth Harbour, one from 2000 and one from today. In 2000: The map features docks, a public beach, a road, a castle (unused), fishing boats, marina (for yachts), a car park, showers & toilets, and a lifeboat. Today: The map shows docks, a public beach, a road, a hotel, castle remains, fishing boats, marina (yachts), car park, showers & toilets, cafes & shops, and a lifeboat with road fork for the hotel. The car park, showers & toilets, marina, and lifeboat locations remain consistent, storage for castle is replaced by cafes & shops, and a new road fork leads to the hotel on the far right side of the harbour along with additional docks appearing in the same general layout.

The maps illustrate Porth Harbour at present and over two decades ago, before changes were made to its layout.
Overall, it is clear that the harbour has been significantly modernised to include more tourist-friendly facilities and convenient infrastructure.
In the year 2000, there was one dock in the north of the harbour, right next to the public beach. While the beach has remained unchanged, another dock has been added. The marina located near the dock occupied the smaller sector in comparison to the fishing boat area; however, now these two facilities have been interchanged to provide more space for private yachts.
Another striking development is a disused castle on the eastern peninsular that has been renovated and turned into a hotel with an adjacent private beach and a road. It is notable that tourist flow has stimulated the construction of cafes and shops to the south-west of the hotel. Both car parks on the western side of the harbour now have showers and toilets and can be accessed from the main road.
