Nare Point

Season: autumn

It takes quite an effort to get to Nare Point, due to its isolated location.  This is an ex-MOD observatory that the voluntary National Coastwatch Institute (NCI) have taken on and are renovating for their purposes.  Like the RNLI, the NCI have a vital role in safeguarding us in Cornwall and those of us who go to sea, keeping an eye out for seafarers and walkers alike.  The volunteers were very friendly and I enjoyed a panoramic view of the Helford Estuary and Falmouth Bay.  There are no facilities for the public here, but it’s well worth a walk out to Nare Point.
