Caerthillian to Kennack, Scientific conservation site in Kerrier, Cornwall
The protected area spans 141 hectares along the Lizard Peninsula coastline, featuring diverse marine environments, rocky reefs, and sand dunes.
The site received its designation as a Site of Special Scientific Interest in 1951, previously known as South and East Lizard before boundary modifications.
The South West Coast Path traverses through the area, allowing visitors to explore the natural landscapes while supporting local conservation efforts.
Natural England manages the site and maintains public footpaths that provide access to different sections throughout the spring and summer months.
A pair of Cornish choughs produced eggs in a cave at Lizard Point in 2002, marking the first breeding occurrence in Cornwall in 50 years.
