Amazing beach ... park at Lands End car park ... keep left and take the coastal path ... it's a fantastic walk ... needa walking boots, because narrow in places ... rocky up and down ... not for the faint hearted
A beautiful beach, within easy walking distance of PentChy for those who want to get away from it all for a bit.
Home to the Song of the Sea, a tall, narrow natural arch that winks at the golden sand, Nanjizal is thought by many to be the finest beach on the Penwith peninsula, in Cornwall's far west. It's truly secluded, though, and often deserted. This may be down to its distance from any road or car park. But it's well worth making the effort to walk to, if only to check out its famous slit-like arch and some remarkable natural stone sculptures, including the Diamond Horse – an equine-shaped formation through which sunlight shines with a jewel-like glint. Caves and anenome-studded rockpools emerge when the sea retreats, and there's even a freshwater waterfall, which is ideal for washing off all that post-swim salt. Wild ponies graze on the verges above the beach and are friendly enough to come and say hello. Our suggested walk is a straightforward stroll through fields and farmland, which takes in a short section of the Coastal Path before emerging onto the beach. THE WALK Distance: 3.5km Duration: 1 hour Walk grade: Moderate Beach access: Easy Directions: Head down the B3315 from Penzance towards Land's End and stop in Trevescan. Park in one of the laybys on either side of the village, around 200 metres away.

Please be mindful when planning your visit to this place. The roads that lead to it are very small and narrow, often gridlocked during busy times and seasons which make it very difficult for residents to go about their daily lives. We advise going during the early hours or early evening. If anything it's so much better then.
