Aire Point to Carrick Du SSSI, Protected coastal area in Cornwall, England.

The site extends across 5.98 square kilometers of coastline, featuring vertical sea cliffs formed from the Land's End granite mass along the Penwith peninsula.

The area received its initial designation in 1967, with current boundaries established in 1995 to protect its significant geological and biological features.

The South West Coast Path traverses through this natural site, connecting the Somerset coastline to Dorset through centuries-old walking routes.
