Lizard Point is the southernmost tip of Britain. A mild maritime climate and unique geology give the Lizard peninsula a distinctive character and make it ideal for rare and unusual flora. The cliffs surrounding Lizard Point are extremely rich in wildlife.

Counterpart to John O'Groats in the north of Scotland. quite warm climate due to the Gulf Stream. Wonderful to watch and enjoy nature.

Lizard point was the busiest place we passed on our walk. You will find drinks and eateries, shops and toilets at the National Trust car park. Keep in mind that there are always a lot of people to visit this place.
