A warm dry morning as I left Winscombe for the coach-train-bus journey to the Lizard where I had started the Coast Path walk last year. This time I will be going east in an attempt to complete the section to the end at Poole.

The bus got me to Lizard by 14.30 and I set off in some sunshine. It was quite hot and I should have had my shorts on but couldn't be bothered to faff around unpacking the rucksack so carried on in my trousers.

Up, down and over headlands, just as I remembered it but there are a lot more people about. Tourist season is not over yet, the good weather must have tempted people out as well.

| The coast |
The first place along the coast was Cadwith, a tiny fishing village with no harbour. Just a big winch to pull the boats up the beach.

There wasn't an excessive amount of climbing involved, just enough to keep it interesting and some good cliff scenery.
