The Lizard round (Part II) - Kynance to Cadgwith and back to Lizard Point

From Kynance we headed up the valley, with a view of a Peregrine, to Lizard Downs. More or less immediately, a cracking view of a male adder curled up, alongside a sun-bathing female. Keeping the dog on a tight lead, we headed across the downs and rather than following the road we headed to the church at Grade and then the footpath down into Cadgwith. A good short cut! Arriving in Cadgwith it was nice to see cottages being re-thatched. With the wind really picking up, the fishing boats were being hauled up the beach on their wooden rollers. A challenging walk along the coastal path - because of the wind - I'm glad it was onshore - before heading inland to Lizard village. 

Lizard Downs - nice and dry for a change.

A glorious Adder.

Sun bathing.

Re-thatching in Cadgwith.

Heading down to the harbour.

Thatch detail.

They were pulling the boats up as we were there, ahead of the worst winds.

Cramp balls.

Choppy...

Looking towards Lizard Point.

And back through the 'chocolate box' lanes.

Lush...

Nice!

And then back to base at Praa Sands for a pint in the beach bar.
