A short walk from Hendersick Farm, via the coast path, to Talland Bay. A quick stop for a Roskillys ice cream at the Talland Beach Cafe (yum!) before climbing the steep hill out of Talland back to the NT Carpark at Hendersick.

Path from Hendersick Farm

Portnadler Bay – Beautiful clear blue water

Portnadler Bay with Looe Island, and Whitsand Bay beyond

Looe Island has an interesting history – now owned by Cornwall Wildlife Trust, who offer opportunities to visit the island.

Talland Bay

The boiler of the steam trawler ‘Marguerite‘, wrecked in 1922, can still be seen on a low tide in the middle of Talland Bay. The 21 crew were rescued in a heroic action by Coxswain Toms and the crew of ‘Ryder’ lifeboat.
