Hiking
Tucked away just behind Lizard Point is a stunning little beautiful bay called Housel Bay. At the base of steep, dark, winding cliffs you will find a small stretch of almost white sand with the clearest turquoise water imaginable.
The beach here is relatively sheltered, especially considering it is a stone's throw from the southernmost point of mainland Britain. The high cliffs provide plenty of shelter from the wind.

I can recommend the Fallowfield Restaurant at the Housel Bay Hotel for a very nice meal.

Great view of the bay. This can be visited at low tide. The steep stairs are followed by large rocks that you have to climb over. Be sure to watch the tide. The bay is only accessible at low tide.
