Lovely sandy beaches surrounded by serpentine rock formations in red and green and enveloped by the turquoise water that changes the landscape/seascape quite dramatically between high and low tide – that is Kynance Cove. The sheer sides of the cliffs along the coast, the sharp and tall rock stacks and the dark red and green of the serpentine rock minerals makes it very beautiful in sunshine. And after a failed attempt during a rainy afternoon I was able to come back in stunning sunshine and could understand why sun seekers and painters – and photographers – are so attracted to this cove on the exposed west side of the Lizards.
