I think (only think) it's part of the Lizard coastline near Pentreath Beach.  Need to look for the right spot on the path.

Is this the same place, Nell ... Kynance Cove ?  I don't know the area, but this looks like it's taken from the other side.

Sorry, Scouseboy, but definitely not Swanage.

I'm having second thoughts on this one.  sugarbakers, I was thinking of somewhere very close to there, but there are some key features missing from the landscape - and that bothers me.  I can't make the photo fit with the places that I know and have pictures  :-\

So please folks - your ideas welcome as well!

Thanks, Nell ... and when you look at Kynance from the other way it's far less severe than Caz's picture.

It is (just reached the same conclusion myself) -  ;D aka Long Island near Trevalga :

Scroll down for a nice colour picture.  Large colonies of sea birds there.

I was on the wrong part of the coast path at the wrong end of the county.  ::)

Looking in completely the wrong place in my own photos  :-[
