The Beaches of South Cornwall - S08 - Marazion Beach
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 west of Penzance
Dominated as it is by the imposing St. Michael's Mount, many people overlook Marazion as a beach in its own right. Most visitors park behind the beach and scurry quickly across the causeway - at low tide - to the Mount little realising there is quite a bit to see and do around here. There is the RSPB haven of Marazion Marsh behind the road and there are good walks west to Penzance and east to Perranuthnoe and Cudden Point. Windsurfing and kite flying is popular on the beach. In Marazion itself there are a couple of Inns for refreshment and there are also some good restaurants.
