Description
A stone stack and the sun setting next to The Brisons off Porth Nanven in the far west of Cornwall.
The Brisons is a twin-peaked islet about a mile offshore that is often said resembles Charles De Gaulle lying on his back in a bath.
Porth Nanven is Cornish for “port of the rocky valley”. It is also known as Pornanven, and colloquially as Cot Valley Beach and is a place undiscovered by most holiday makers but loved by photographers.
Cot valley is a beautiful valley dissected by a narrow stream running northwest to the coast between Land’s End and Cape Cornwall. Porth Nanven at the seaward end of Cot Valley consists of a sandy beach covered with large rounded boulders, often described as dinosaur eggs
