ルーの天然記念物・トップ5

Hore Stone point is on the wonderful section of the SWCP between Looe and Polperro. Great walking and amazing views over Portnadler Bay towards Looe Island.

Walked it in drizzly conditions, but still great views!

Managed by the National Trust, Lantic Bay is actually two beaches, Little Lantic and Great Lantic. You can access the sand by a set of steep steps but it is also very popular to visit by boat. Being off the beaten track, dogs are welcome on this beach all year round.

The white pillar is a navigational aid used by seafarers during the day. Looking west from here on a good day, you can also see the tall red and white stripped daymark at Gribbin Head.

Looe Island is a marine nature reserve and the water surrounding it is teeming with wildlife. It is said that Jesus visited the island with his uncle, Joseph of Arimathea. It's nickname St George arose after it was said to have been mistaken for an allied ship during WW2 and bombed. Henceforth being known as HMS St George.

St Keyne's well is located just outside the village of St Keyne. A stone path takes you down the the well house. Tales say that if two newly-weds drink the water, the first one to drink it will become more dominant in the marriage.

Beautiful beach. The Daphne Du Maurer trail passes by the beach above the coast. If you have swimming gear with you, you can plunge into the turquoise-blue water. The steep path to and especially from the beach is a bit difficult. Too much swimming / bathing equipment is therefore not recommended.

Very beautiful coastline with great beaches
