Hiking

A visit to the port of Porthleven is especially worthwhile in the early morning hours. Especially in the spring you have the chance to be completely alone and to watch the boats close in the fog. If it gets a bit rougher, even surfers around the pier romp about. The waves then pile up so tight that you can plunge into Brett (and Wetsuite!). Who likes himself.

Road cycling

This is a gorgeous little coastal town on the Lizard Peninsular and the perfect place to stop for coffee and cake (or a Cornish pasty?) before climbing the hill out again. It's just so pretty, the white washed stone cottages and muted blue/greys of the sea giving it a very tranquil air. A place to linger
