8.7 miles from Lestowder
East-facing rocky cove below The Lizard with kelp-filled gullies and small ledges giving quick access to fairly deep, clear water. Sheltered from many prevailing westerlies but exposed to easterly swells; ledges can be slippery and swells rebound on bigger tides. Best on the flood into high, especially dawn/dusk through late...
