Welcome to Lizard Point

Lizard Point is a beautiful and rugged headland located on the southernmost tip of Cornwall, England. It is known for its stunning coastal scenery, dramatic cliffs, and crystal-clear waters. The area is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, who come to enjoy the natural beauty of the landscape and explore the many walking trails that wind their way along the coastline.

One of the most striking features of Lizard Point is its lighthouse, which has been guiding ships safely through the treacherous waters off the coast of Cornwall for over 250 years. The lighthouse is open to visitors, who can climb to the top for breathtaking views of the surrounding area. The nearby village of Lizard is also worth a visit, with its charming cottages, quaint shops, and friendly locals.

For those who love the outdoors, Lizard Point is a paradise. The area is home to a wide variety of wildlife, including seals, dolphins, and rare birds such as the chough. There are also plenty of opportunities for hiking, cycling, and water sports, with several beaches and coves dotted along the coastline. Whether you're looking for a peaceful retreat or an action-packed adventure, Lizard Point has something for everyone.
