About
About Sennen Cove
Sennen Cove sits at the southern end of Whitesand Bay, the last big beach before Land’s End. Its long stretch of pale sand faces the Atlantic, so it often has good surf when other beaches are flat, and the water is famously clear.
The little harbour at the southern end is home to an RNLI lifeboat station, the Round House gallery and a handful of cafés and pubs. From here the South West Coast Path climbs over the cliffs to Land’s End, one of the most beautiful short walks in Cornwall.
