    Tips

    Godrevy Head at the eastern end of St Ives Bay, overlooking Godrevy Island and its lighthouse, offers one of Cornwall's most beautiful sunsets. The lighthouse on Godrevy Iceland is said to have inspired the writer Virginia Woolf to her novel "To the Lighthouse". West of Godrevy Head is a series of breathtaking beaches such as Gwithian Beach, where Atlantic waves meet at full speed.

      The central car park is located at the Godrevy Cafe near the village of Gwithian. Especially on weekends in summer this is recommended. From here, a short path through the dunes leads to the sea. Turn to the right and after about one kilometer you will reach the Godrevy Head along the cliffs. On the left hand side are Gwithian Beach and its beaches.

        Parking is owned by the National Trust (free for Touring Pass holders)

        The cafe at the parking lot is to be recommended (nationaltrust.org.uk/godrevy/features/godrevy-beach-cafe).

        Otherwise, I can not add to the other tips.
