Lantic Bay, Natural bay in Cornwall, England.
Description
Lantic Bay is a coastal inlet in Cornwall with two beach sections that connect via sand at low tide. The bay sits beneath tall cliffs and offers an undeveloped shoreline without buildings or commercial structures.
History
Local fishing communities relied on the bay as a natural harbor for centuries. This long history of maritime use shaped the region's connection to the sea.
Culture
The National Trust maintains this section of Cornwall's coastline, preserving its natural state for future generations to experience maritime heritage.
Practical
Access requires a 20-minute walk from a parking area through farmland and down steep cliff paths to the shore. Sturdy footwear is important as the trail is demanding and slippery when wet.
Did you know?
Low tide reveals multiple rock pools around the bay with small ecosystems full of marine life. These temporary water pools offer glimpses into underwater life among the stones.
