Penwith
(View across Mounts Bay to St Michaels Mount)
Penwith is an almost-island peninsula at the western tip of Cornwall.
A granite outcrop with a very individual character, history and ecology.
Surrounded by a multitude of tiny coves, rocky cliffs and large sandy bays it is renowned for its surfing, fishing ports, sea life and clear blue water.
Its interior is historic granite moors with fascinating walking, ancient remains, hidden away villages and wooded valleys running to the sea.
The real Cornwall, beyond Cornwall.
