St Anthony Head
St Anthony Head guards the entrance to the Carrick Roads estuary in Cornwall with a lighthouse and Victorian fortifications perched on a promontory of extraordinary beauty. From the headland, the views span the Roseland Peninsula, Falmouth Bay and the rolling estuary waters in every direction — one of the finest viewpoints in Cornwall. The National Trust coast path here takes in sheltered coves, woodland and some of the best seabird-watching on the south coast.
