DAY 8: Padstow to Port Isaac (11.78m)

I catch the ferry, as the only passenger, across the Camel estuary to start today's walk at Rock.

Despite being a bit overcast today there are large swathes of colour from gorse bushes and carpets of bluebells.

As i follow the coast I have become obsessed with reciting, and crossing off in my head, the wonderful names of the rocks, coves and islands that I pass. Just on this day's stretch we have:

Greenaway Rock, Shag Rock, Slipper Point, Guglane, Rumps Point, Sevensouls Rock, The Mould, Pengrit Cove, Carnweather Point, Great Lobb's Point, Lundy Hole, Pennywilgie Point, Pigeon Covered, Cow & Calf, Pine Haven, and Lobber Point.
