Porthtowan
This shot was taken from the beach on glorious winter morning showing the entrance to the harbour with the lighthouse on the cliff. Porthtowen can be very dramatic in the winter and surfing is popular.
A view from the cliff path at Porthtowan, looking south west towards St Ives. #beach
In the next village to where I live (which is a seaside village with a popular surfing beach) there is a pool carved out next to 100 foot cliffs.  At high tide the waves break over the end wall and refresh the water.  It's pretty well hidden, so if you don't know it's there you might miss it.  And yes, those are my toes.
