Prussia Cove
9 June 2011
A lack of facilities make Prussia Cove a tranquil spot even at the height of summer, so if you can live without a beach cafe and loos, this is the one for you. The cove was home to one of Cornwall's most famous smugglers. In the 18th Century, John Carter, known as 'The King of Prussia', used the caves here to stash his smuggled goods. Parking is limited so it's best to get there early during summer. A great spot for snorkelling, the water is crystal clear here. Dogs are allowed year round.
