Housel Bay

This attractive little sandy cove is reached by a steep path and is a 15 minute walk from the car park at Lizard Point. Be careful, it can be cut off at high tide.

Hidden gem

This beautiful cove is only accessible at low tide. The steps down are really steep and involve climbing across rocks so care is needed. Lovely for swimming.
