Comments Off on Photo Blog: Walking from Mevagissey to Gorran Haven

Seagulls
Walking from Skysail to Gorran Haven (seaside village with fabulous sandy beach, ideal for small children) around the Cliffs is a truly exhilerating experience, fantastic Cliffs, Chapel Point Beach, amazing changing views all the way. It takes around 1 hour 20 minutes, not to be missed. And when you get there relax on the sandy beach, go to the beach cafe or the bakery or pub for lunch. Perfect! A seal and her pup were seen at Chapel Point right by the beach in February, just basking in the sun. If you prefer a shorter walk just head for Chapel Point, its about 30 minutes walk.
