KYNANCE COVE
'Kynance Cove' is an inlet on the Lizard peninsula in south-west Cornwall, England, UK. It is known for its rugged cliffs, white sand and turquoise water. It is now owned by the National Trust.
The cove lies two miles north of Lizard Point, the southernmost point of mainland Britain. It boasts islands of multi-coloured serpentine rock with stacks and arches hidden amongst the towering
cliffs. An outstanding feature is the fact that at high tide a sandy beach which faces the water on two sides and a small island, which becomes a tidal island, are cut off and thus inaccessible. [1]
The cove became popular in the early Victorian era, with many distinguished visitors including Alfred Lord Tennyson. [2]
The BBC has described Kynance Cove as "one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline in the South West." [3]
