This scenic viewpoint on the north coast of Cornwall offers breathtaking 360-degree views of the surrounding coastline and countryside. On a clear day, visitors can see as far as the Lizard Peninsula and the Isles of Scilly. The point is surrounded by rugged cliffs, and the sea below is dotted with rocky outcrops and hidden coves. A small, secluded beach lies at the foot of the cliffs, accessible only at low tide. The area is rich in wildlife, with frequent sightings of seabirds, seals, and dolphins.
I love sitting down there reading my books nice and peaceful nice to see people go by
Arctic temperatures and face-slicing wind chill, but absolutely stunning... Roll on summer...
The beach is very long, the sand is fine and the water was as blue as the sky. You can rent surf boards or you can choose a boat ride. The weather was amazing. Overall a great beach.
Spectacular view from the Spyglass Point which gives access to the beach and facilities alongside the beach.
Great views along the beach from Hengisbury Head to Sandbanks. On a clear day you can get good views of the Isle of Wight and the Purbecks. There is a zigzag near by to walk down to the beach. The Spyglass and Kettle is a lovely pub/ restaurant with very good food. There is also a cafe slightly along from there.
A great viewing point with views from Hengistbury Head to Sandbanks. Plenty of benches. An adjacent bus stop gives good access. Night views stunning.
