Visit this spectacular beach and tread the sands where Guglielmo Marconi conducted some of his groundbreaking experiments with transatlantic cabling.

Beautiful cove with shop in the summer selling ice creams and other refreshments.

Great pub and useful village shop for stocking up.

Compact village with good local shop selling delish locally made pasties.

Gweek village green is a great spot to stop for a picnic beside the creek. There are benches to sit and enjoy the creekside views. The village store is not far from here. Gweek is the head of the Helford River and was once a thriving port. Mining ore was exported from Gweek, and coal and timber were imported for the mines. There used to be a tin smelting house and processing plant for pilchards. The creek has silted up since being a busy port. Now, Gweek is better known for the National Seal Sanctuary.

Nice, besides the seals there are also sheep, beavers and penguins.

For those interested in history and technology, there is the Marconi Center about 300 meters above. From a radio station located there, Marconi succeeded in 1901 in establishing the first radio connection to Newfoundland.

The hotel has plumbed in a tap to fill water bottles from on the entrance to their driveway. Not just for guests. http://www.thebayhotel.co.uk/
