Perfect for holidays in Cornwall, the Lizard peninsula is unique in its outstanding beauty and the special flora of the cliff tops and downs. Birdwatchers and walkers can enjoy the coastal paths and beaches just as much as those who want the traditional seaside beach holiday with sun and sand.

Nearby beaches recommended by the Marine Conservation Society for water quality and with the benefit of RNLI Lifeguards include Poldhu Cove, Praa Sands, Coverack, Carbis Bay, and Gyllingvase at Falmouth.

Also recommended for water quality but without lifeguards are Polurrian Cove itself, Porthleven, Kennack Sands and many others further afield.

Garden enthusiasts have a treat in store with local garden estates open to the public, featuring exotic species that thrive in the climate here in the southernmost part of the UK.
