The Beaches of South Cornwall - S00 - Porthgwarra
This map is part of the Ordnance Survey's Explorer series designed to replace the old Pathfinder map series. At 1:25,000 scale this detailed map shows a host of attractions including gardens which are open to the public, nature reserves and country parks as well as all official footpaths, bridleways, roads and lanes. Other facilities covered include: camping and caravan sites, picnic areas and viewpoints, selected places of interest, rights of way information for England and Wales, National Trail and Recreational Path routes, and selected tourist information. The series is aimed mainly at the experienced map user but can be used by tourists and locals alike. Location: South Coast - 3 miles southeast of Land's End
A very small boulder strewn south facing cove, largely overlooked by the casual visitor. It is situated roughly midway between Porthcurno and Lands End. There is a large car park here and a small shop selling pasties and refreshments in season as well as some souvenirs. An excellent place to use as a refreshment stop while cliffwalking the Porthcurno to Gwennap Head areas or visiting the excellent clifftop Minack Theatre. Not all that well known but well worth the walk on a sunny day. Facilities
