This circular walk provides a good way to discover Crantock Beach, the Gannel estuary wildlife and a few paths inland.

St. Piran is the patron saint of tin miners and Cornwall. A walk into the dunes to where St. Piran landed and built an oratory, and later a church. The walk-in, to be fair, could be seen as a little featureless, making the way through the dunes. Looking deeper, and in the eyes of the beholder, there can be plenty to discover, from the flora and fauna to the historic facts relating to the dunes. To find such historic remains in the middle of the dunes poses many questions, but simple to explain.

This short circular walk from Trebarwith Strand provides a good way to admire Penhallic Point, Hole beach, Backways and Lill Coves from the coastal path.

Does King Arthur ring a bell? If not, look up and watch some of the Monty Python films and you will be convinced that the English legend is (not) just a legend! Whether King Arthur was born here or not is not very important. Whether Merlin lived in the caves carved out by the Atlantic Ocean at the foot of this medieval castle or not is not very important either. The important thing is to enjoy the place and, if you wish, treat yourself to a (paid) tour of the peninsula, which is clearly visible from Barras Nose, the nearby rocky outcrop. In short, the coastline here is very beautiful, as is the path running along the foot of this ancient fortress.
