Beyond the uniquely fascinating Witchcraft Museum the harbour is a fantastic spot for a refreshing swim, and if you're looking for some sun and scenery, the surrounding cliffs offer breathtaking views. Find a cozy nook for a picnic, soak up the rays, keep an eye out for playful seals or even dolphins, and be amazed by the power of the Blowhole as it erupts with a loud boom.

The Cornish Coastal Path is a spectacular hike with dramatic cliffs plunging into the sea, hidden coves, and the presence of the wild Atlantic. Be prepared for steep climbs, maybe a bit of scrambling, and some seriously breathtaking views. Pack your waterproofs, because Cornish weather is notoriously unpredictable. But trust me, the effort is worth it. This path will stay with you long after you've finished walking it.
