Rugged Cornish Coastal View Looking North East to Basset's Cove and Samphire Island; Near Portreath, Cornwall.

---

View from the South West Coastal Path by Mirrose Well (near Portreath, Cornwall,) looking North East. The rugged cliffs tower over Basset's Cove and below the beach and cave are exposed at low tide. The South West Path can be seen running along the cliff edge and Samphire Island is surrounded by waves. The effects of erosion on this exposed coastline are clearly visible.
