Carn Boel Tidal Pool

Carn Boel Tidal Pool in a nutshell

This is a remote pool overlooking Mill Bay between Land's End and Nanjizal in the far West of Cornwall. Tricky access and a good walk from the nearest car park.

What we love about Carn Boel Tidal Pool

After a fair bit of research and a tip-off from a fellow swimmer we found this natural sea pool at the base of the cliffs below Carn Boel for a fresh February swim! Access is quite steep and tricky so take care and travel light!
