About

Lizard Point, managed by the National Trust, is a dramatic headland on the South West Coast of Cornwall. Surrounded by turquoise Atlantic waters and iconic white cliffs, it offers sweeping sea views, miles of rugged coastline and a wealth of wildlife. Visitors can explore the historic Lizard Wireless Station, the Mountainous Wildlife Watchpoint, or simply enjoy leisurely walks on the South West Coast Path. The site is free to enter for all visitors, though some on‑site facilities such as the car park may require a small fee. The National Trust encourages family‑friendly visits, dog‑friendly walks, and nature‑oriented exploration.
