Treen Cove, Coastal cove and beach in Cornwall, United Kingdom.
Treen Cove is a small coastal inlet in Cornwall with turquoise water nestled between two rocky headlands. Steep cliffs frame the shore, creating a natural curved bay.
The area was settled during the Iron Age, as evidenced by archaeological remains from that period. A large rock formation later provided shelter for fishing boats during storms in the 1800s.
The name comes from Cornish words: 'tre' meaning farm and 'din' meaning fort, reflecting a historical settlement that once occupied this area.
Getting to the beach requires walking down a steep path, so check tide times before heading out. Bring your own supplies since facilities are very limited at this location.
At low tide, rocky pools reveal abundant marine life including sea anemones and sea urchins. These natural pools form in the fractured rock and are a favorite spot for nature observers.
