Dramatic cliffs along the Atlantic coast.
After leaving Newquay we headed west to the estuary of the River Gannel. We had to head upstream to a different bridge because the place we were planning to cross wasn't passable.
This diversion early on meant we found ourselves further inland than planned so we worked out a new route to meet the coast path at Perranporth.
To say the coastline is dramatic is a big understatement. There were a lot of landslips and the narrow rocky coast path is right on the edge of the cliff in places. The south west coast path is a well-managed national trail but it seems like bits of it might be getting eroded faster than alternative routes can be put in place.
The day ended with a stunning sunset. Here are some photos to summarise the day...
