Cremyll to Cawsand

We took the ferry from Admirals Hard to Cremyll.  Before starting on the South West Coast Path we followed the Camelia National Collection Trail.  Although some of the camelias were out, most were still to come into flower.

One spectacular rhododendron tree was in flower.

On the South West Coast Path from Cremyll we first passed a bank of daffodils.  Again there were some still to come out, but nevertheless it looked lovely.


The walk gives beautiful views of Plymouth Sound, Drakes Island and the Breakwater.


Due to landslides and dangerous trees there were a couple of diversions on the route and we had to climb up steep steps and slide down muddy paths, but the views were spectacular all the way to Cawsand.


You first come to Kingsand with its narrow lanes and then Cawsand with its beach and rock pools.


Rather than take the muddy paths back to Cremyll and the ferry we caught the bus from Cawsand back to Cremyll and this gave us the opportunity to see Millbrook on the way back.
