Sennen Cove is the last village before Land’s End, a fishing and surfing beach looking out to the Longships Lighthouse a mile or so offshore. Whitesand Bay curves north from here, one of the best beaches in the far west. The Old Success Inn is by the slip, and the coast path runs south to Land’s End itself. Penzance is the nearest station, about 13km east.
