Lizard Point, with its rugged cliffs and wild seas, is the most southerly part of mainland Great Britain.
These people were right on the edge!

They look pretty relaxed about it though 🙂

They do, but I wasn’t relaxed while watching them. I had to look away. I’m fine with heights when I know I can’t fall, but this was taking it a bit too far.

Gorgeous photos. The title brought to my mind great movie called the Edge (1997) starring of Anthony Hopkins, Alec Baldwin and Bart the Bear. Thank You showing these photos.

The coastal path goes a little too close to the edge for my liking! Did you visit Kynance Cove whilst down there? The most beautiful beach I think.

We didn’t go to that beach. Next time… We looked at the people heading off up the path and it did look very close to the edge. It was also very windy so we didn’t go walking. Just looking at this amazing view was enough for me.

Especially as it was so windy. I wouldn’t have felt safe down there. I was happy to look from the top.

Thank you. I had to lean over the railing a little to get the angle I wanted.

Great ‘edge’ shots. Wow – I couldn’t watch those people if I was there, they are just a bit too close 😉

I didn’t watch them for long either, Dianne. It was giving me the creeps seeing them there, because it was very windy and it would have been easy for them to misstep and go over the edge.

I’m pretty nervous looking at those photos. Yikes! 🙂 Glad you stayed away from the edge a little bit. There doesn’t seem to be a railing. You didn’t try to climb down, did you? 🙂

There was a fence along the walking track but not where those people were. Mr ET would very much have liked to climb down there but I just wasn’t agreeing to that!

Oh my goodness what a glorious spot! Going on my Travel Bucket list right next to Port Isac and Plymouth. Would be fun to explore by car or perhaps a camper caravan of sorts.
I really enjoy your blog, and you are guilty of adding to my rather long Travel Bucket list! I have nominated you for the 3 Days 3 Quotes Challenge. Please do not feel obligated in any way, but if you are interested – here is the link: https://travelmuch.net/2016/09/25/nordenskiold-glacier/
Wishing you a fab week!

Thanks Olive! I’m pleased to hear I’ve encouraged you to visit more places. We thought Lizard was better to visit than Land’s End. We always thought a campervan would be the way to go, but after negotiating the very narrow and windy roads we have changed our minds. We found it was much better to have a smaller car and base ourselves in a nice airbnb apartment. We didn’t make it to Port Isaac this time and now we think we would need at least two weeks to explore Cornwall, if not more.
Thanks too for the nomination. We are still travelling in UK so it will have to wait until I’m home.
