セントアイブス周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

Since the lighthouse is associated with the literary work of Virginia Woolf: Tilman Spengler is the man on German television who brings great authors and their works closer to culturally interested viewers. His series "Classics of World Literature" pays tribute to writers from all eras with a 15-minute episode (in German). One of these writers is Virginia Woolf (1882–1941). The segment can be found in the ARD Mediathek (ARD Media Library) at the following link: https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/klassiker-der-weltliteratur/virginia-woolf/ard-alpha/Y3JpZDovL2JyLmRlL3ZpZGVvLzkxODAyOWQ5LTZjOGUtNDEwYi1iODgyLTUwNzNlNTM3MWJiZA

There is a ferry from the harbor to the Scilly Islands, which are a must-see. Otherwise there is a nice promenade.

For me, St. Ives is one of the most idyllic places on Cornwall's coast. Here you will not only find shops, pubs and nice cafés, but also many small art galleries.

A visit to St Michael's Mount is well worth it, even if the entrance fee is a hefty £26.00 for the castle and gardens (2023). You have to make the necessary time for it. Avoid the weekends because then it is very busy!

The harbor at St Michael's Mount can only be used at high tide.

The war memorial (WW1 & WW2) to the "parish" Germoe marks the top of Tregonning Hill, at 194 meters above sea level. That doesn't sound very high, but it's higher than the rest of the country nearby, and the hill gives great views of the north and south coasts, Mounts Bay, The Lizard etc on a clear day.

Very easy to reach by train. Nice place

St Ives should be avoided during English school holidays - unless you like crowded Mallorca. Unfortunately, it wasn't tranquil there. But the walk around St Ives towards Zennor is gorgeous.
