Gerrans Bay to Camels Cove

This coastal region spans 139.5 hectares along the south Cornish coast, featuring diverse marine habitats and geological formations between Creek Stephen Point and Manare Point.

The area received its designation as a Site of Special Scientific Interest in 1951, merging two separate protected zones into one comprehensive conservation space.

The National Trust maintains sections of the South West Coast Path through this region, enabling public connection with Cornwall's natural maritime heritage.

Visitors can access multiple walking routes along the coastline, with specific paths connecting different sections between Gerrans Bay and the eastern boundary near Portloe.

The protected area includes Gull Rock, an offshore formation that contributes to the site's ecological value and scientific research opportunities.
