Walks near Carbis Bay

Godrevy Head

An easy stroll around the headland and just over half a mile in length. Park at Godrevy Head car park and follow the coastal path keeping the sea on your left. Stay on the path until you reach a slight decent past Mutton Cove (no access) and then take the footpath on the right back to the car park. A great walk for children as there are beaches, a lighthouse and even occasionally a pod of dolphins who reside in St Ives Bay can be seen. There is a stile and slight incline so this walk is not suitable for pushchairs or people with impaired mobility.

Marazion to Penzance Walk

The best starting point is from the centre of Marazion. You'll find lots of car parking available both in the car parks on the sea front and along side the road heading towards Penzance. Keeping the sea on your left follow the path along the sea front. It's a lovely flat stroll, suitable for wheelchairs and pushchairs and with views across Mounts Bay and beyond. If the tide is out you can detour along the cobbles to the magical St Michaels Mount. It's a National Trust property and well worth a visit if you have the time and there's also an excellent cafe there which serves great cream teas. The Penzance train runs along the side of the path for some of the way. This is a very good walk for dogs as some of the beach is dog friendly and there's also dog friendly pubs en-route. Return the same way and enjoy the view.
