A beautiful walk to St Ives along the Cornish Coast Path with a diversion onto Porthkidney Beach at full low tide giving an extra mile of walking following the water's edge from Hale Estuary.
There are two ways to go to Carbis Bay from Hawk's Point, follownthe railway or along the cliff edge.

There are two ways to go to Carbis Bay from Hawk's Point, I followed the railway but there is another way along the cliff edge. I have done it before but with a couple of dogs along it makes it more dangerous should they stray to the edge. The views are amazing that way though.
