Description
Located in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Gwenver beach is sandy and around 150 metres long. At low tide it joins up with the neighbouring beach at Sennen. The views from the cliffs are spectacular and on fine, clear days the Longships Lighthouse and Isles of Scilly can be seen far out to sea
Providing some of the best surfing conditions in Cornwall, Gwenver attracts experienced locals with its large waves as the beach is located at the base of steep granite cliffs and with its difficult access stops the beach from ever getting too crowded.
It is thought to get its name from Guinevere, the mythical wife of legendary Cornish King Arthur.
