Mullion Cove

Mullion Cove, known locally as Porth Mellin, sits on the rugged west-facing coast of the Lizard Peninsula — England's most southerly point — where you anchor off in the shelter of a charming 1890s stone harbour that protects a small working fishing fleet from the Atlantic swell. The dramatic cliffs, sea caves, and wild Cornish scenery make this one of the most atmospheric anchorages on the south coast, with the village and the heather-covered Lizard heathland just a short step away.
